Description
Theoretical models and hydrodynamical simulations of AGN feedback predict that outflows developing in AGN host galaxies have a multiphase and multiscale nature and that some physical mechanisms must link the inner regions where the SMBH gravitational field dominates, to the larger scales, where its direct influence is negligible. This paradigm has been unambiguously confirmed by a plethora of multiwavelength observations in the past years (and decades). This talk will present the recent observational progresses achieved through X-ray observations, which have turned out to be crucial both to efficiently select AGN that show powerful host galaxies winds, and to probe the presence and the properties of the Ultra Fast Outflows originating in the accretion disc. I will present these two complementary aspects focusing on the results obtained from the exploitation of eROSITA surveys (both eFEDS and eRASS1) and the XMM-Newton SUBWAYS program.
