    BASS XXXI: Outflow scaling relations in low redshift X-ray AGN host galaxies with MUSE
    (2022) Kakkad, D.; Sani, E.; Rojas, A. F.; Mallmann, Nicolas D.; Veilleux, S.; Bauer, Franz E.; Ricci, F.; Mushotzky, R.; Koss, M.; Ricci, C.; Treister, E.; Privon, George C.; Nguyen, N.; Bär, R.; Harrison, F.; Oh, K.; Powell, M.; Riffel, R.; Stern, D.; Trakhtenbrot, B.; Urry, C. M.
    Ionized gas kinematics provide crucial evidence of the impact that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) have in regulating star formation in their host galaxies. Although the presence of outflows in AGN host galaxies has been firmly established, the calculation of outflow properties such as mass outflow rates and kinetic energy remains challenging. We present the [O iii]lambda 5007 ionized gas outflow properties of 22 z<0.1 X-ray AGN, derived from the BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey using MUSE/VLT. With an average spatial resolution of 1 arcsec (0.1-1.2 kpc), the observations resolve the ionized gas clouds down to sub-kiloparsec scales. Resolved maps show that the [O iii] velocity dispersion is, on average, higher in regions ionized by the AGN, compared to star formation. We calculate the instantaneous outflow rates in individual MUSE spaxels by constructing resolved mass outflow rate maps, incorporating variable outflow density and velocity. We compare the instantaneous values with time-averaged outflow rates by placing mock fibres and slits on the MUSE field-of-view, a method often used in the literature. The instantaneous outflow rates (0.2-275 M-circle dot yr(-1)) tend to be two orders of magnitude higher than the time-averaged outflow rates (0.001-40 M-circle dot yr(-1)). The outflow rates correlate with the AGN bolometric luminosity (L-bol similar to 10(42.71)-10(45.62) erg s(-1)) but we find no correlations with black hole mass (10(6.1)-10(8.9) M-circle dot), Eddington ratio (0.002-1.1), and radio luminosity (10(21)-10(26) W Hz(-1)). We find the median coupling between the kinetic energy and L-bol to be 1 per cent, consistent with the theoretical predictions for an AGN-driven outflow.

    Context. The ESO public survey VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) surveyed the inner Galactic bulge and the adjacent southern Galactic disk from 2009-2015. Upon its conclusion, the complementary VVV extended (VVVX) survey has expanded both the temporal as well as spatial coverage of the original VVV area, widening it from 562 to 1700 sq. deg., as well as providing additional epochs in JHKs filters from 2016-2023.
