초록

The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission has been efficient in selecting Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with high luminosities and large obscuration. According to the merger driven AGN powering scenarios, luminous and obscured AGN are in a stage where they go through feeding of gas accretion into the central black hole, and feedback to the host galaxy through outflows. We report the rest-frame UV-optical spectra of 11 Hot Dust Obscured Galaxies (Hot DOGs) at z~2, WISE color-selected to be extremely reddened AGN. A fraction of the targets show blueshifted and broadened [OIII] profiles indicative of ionized gas outflows. We present the occurrence and strength of the outflows, and discuss what impact these AGN activity could give on their hosts.
