1. Mechanism of AGN feedback
On small scales: radiation pressure winds, jets
Slams into surrounding gas
Drive shocks, outflows into interstellar medium
Morphology of wind critically depends on ISM structure, not on input morphology!
Produces outflows ~1000 km/sec
Quasar needs to be luminous enough to push gas out of galaxy (>3e45 erg/sec, Veilleux et al. 2013, Zakamska & Greene 2014, King)

3. Extreme outflows at high z
z>2: the peak galaxy formation epoch, perhaps key point in evolution of massive galaxies
Population of red quasars at z=2.5 with unusual optical properties (Ross et al. 2015)
NIR / rest-frame optical spectra
Extreme broadening of emission lines
Physical velocities of >3000 km/sec.
Nothing like this seen at low z, perhaps a luminosity effect?

Distribution of radio power is very broad
many (>5) orders of magnitude (faint end hard to probe)
Is it a smooth or a bi-modal function?
Is the mechanism of production of radio emission the same (just scaled up and down) or different?
Why do we care? -- Is every black hole capable of producing a jet? Or are jet-producing BH special?

New evidence: Correlation between line width (=outflow velocity) and radio luminosity
These are “the 90%”: faint point sources
Quasar-driven shocks accelerate particles, produce radio emission

Distinguish between compact jets and quasar winds?
Combination of radio luminosity, morphology and spectral index can help
Steep spectrum, unresolved radio core and radio lobes imply
compact jets with episodes on scales of ~107 years

Conclusions
Growing observational evidence for powerful, galaxy-wide quasar-driven winds
Radio-quiet objects (no powerful jets)
Ionized gas (including extreme kinematics, many x 1000 km/sec), molecular gas, bubbles, evidence for the volume-filling component!
We propose that radio emission in RQ quasars = bi-product of shocked winds
