The Impact of Jets on Host Galaxies in Radio-quiet AGN
Content
AGN are expected to influence galaxy evolution through their fast and
powerful outflows which are prominent at radio frequencies, and through
ionizing radiation from their accretion disks through processes termed
broadly as "AGN feedback". The vast majority of AGN are however radio-quiet
and have radio outflows that rarely extend beyond their host galaxies.
In this talk, I will present multi-frequency, multi-scale radio data on
small samples of radio-quiet AGN and show that despite their smallness
radio-quiet AGN jets can influence their surrounding environments. I will
present data showing that jet propagation in radio-quiet AGN is complex
and warrants VLBI monitoring to fully understand them.
