Toward an unbiased study of ionized outflows in z ∼ 2 active galactic nuclei: survey overview and sample characterization⋆. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 620, Article A82. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201833520

Theoretical models of galaxy formation suggest that the presence of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) is required to regulate the growth of its host galaxy through feedback mechanisms, produced by, for example, AGN-driven outflows. Although many obser... Read More about SUPER: I. Toward an unbiased study of ionized outflows in z ∼ 2 active galactic nuclei: survey overview and sample characterization⋆.
