The pith

SKAO will map AGN feeding and feedback by observing hundreds of nearby galaxies down to low radio powers and HI column densities of 10^19 cm^-2 at arcsecond resolution.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

Active galactic nuclei drive galaxy evolution through gas accretion and feedback, but the processes are hard to study because they span from sub-parsec to galactic scales. The paper explains that current observations cannot trace the low-density gas or connect short AGN activity episodes to longer star formation times. SKAO is presented as the tool that will overcome these limits through sensitive radio and HI observations of many nearby AGN. Combining these with other wavelength data will give a complete picture of how AGN affect their host galaxies.

Core claim

The manuscript illustrates how the Square Kilometre Array Observatory will solve observational limitations in AGN feeding and feedback studies. It will observe hundreds of nearby AGN to radio powers of 10^21 W Hz^-1, with simultaneous low and mid frequency data tracing star formation and jets, and HI mapping reaching column densities of about 10^19 cm^-2 at arcsecond resolution to follow inflows, outflows, and multi-phase processes linked to star formation.

What carries the argument

Simultaneous SKA-Low and Mid observations plus arcsecond-resolution HI mapping to trace thermal and synchrotron emission and low-column-density gas in AGN inflows and outflows.

If this is right

  • Characterization of the AGN duty-cycle and timescales of nuclear activities from broad-band radio observations.
  • Tracing the impact of AGN feedback over the full galaxy through low column density HI gas.
  • Understanding fuelling processes from the environment onto the supermassive black hole.
  • Linking multi-phase AGN feeding and feedback to star formation via combined radio, mm, sub-mm and optical observations.

Where Pith is reading between the lines

These are editorial extensions of the paper, not claims the author makes directly.

  • Such observations could provide benchmarks for simulations of how AGN regulate galaxy growth over cosmic time.
  • Statistical samples might reveal whether feedback effects are dominated by rare powerful events or common weak ones.
  • Connecting radio jet properties directly to HI structures could test models of how energy is transferred to the interstellar medium.

Load-bearing premise

The low column density HI gas detected at arcsecond resolution will directly represent the inflows and outflows that regulate AGN activity and its connection to star formation.

What would settle it

A survey with SKAO that finds no association between the detected low-density HI structures and either AGN radio activity or star formation rates in the observed galaxies would challenge the central claim.

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are key drivers of galaxy evolution, triggered by cold gas accreting onto a super-massive black hole. However, the processes regulating this gas accretion (feeding) and how AGN alter the interstellar medium to affect star formation (feedback) remain poorly understood. A major observational challenge is the vast range of spatial scales involved: AGN fuelling and jet-ejection occur over the sub-pc scales, while AGN feedback shocks and heats the ISM preventing star formation over the galactic and circum-galactic scales. Moreover, it is unclear how short stochastic AGN episodes are connected with the long timescales of gas accretion and star formation. In this manuscript, we illustrate how SKAO will provide the unprecedented opportunity to solve the observational limitations of AGN feeding and feedback studies by observing hundreds of nearby AGN down to low radio powers ($10^{21}$ W Hz$^{-1}$). Simultaneous SKA-Low and Mid observations of nearby galaxies will trace the thermal emission associated with star formation and AGN feedback and the synchrotron emission of their jets of relativistic plasma. These broad-band radio observations enable the detailed characterisation of the AGN duty-cycle, unravelling the time-scales of the nuclear activities. Reaching in 10 hours neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) column density sensitivities $\sim 10^{19}$ cm$^{-2}$ at arcsecond resolution, SKA AA4 observations will trace the typical low column density of HI gas in AGN inflows and outflows, to understand the impact AGN feedback over the full galaxy and trace fuelling processes from the environment onto the SMBH. Combining SKA with mm, sub-mm and optical Integral Field Spectrographic observations at comparable arcsecond resolution will provide an exhaustive understanding of the link between multi-phase AGN feeding and feedback processes and star formation.

Referee Report

2 major / 2 minor

Summary. The manuscript presents a science case for the Square Kilometre Array Observatory (SKAO) in studying AGN feeding and feedback across galactic scales. It argues that SKAO will overcome current observational limits by enabling observations of hundreds of nearby AGN down to radio powers of 10^{21} W Hz^{-1}, simultaneous SKA-Low and Mid broadband observations to trace star formation, AGN feedback, and jets, and HI column density sensitivities of ~10^{19} cm^{-2} at arcsecond resolution in 10 hours. These capabilities, combined with multi-wavelength data, are claimed to connect short AGN episodes to longer gas accretion and star formation timescales.

Significance. If the projected SKAO performance metrics are realized, the paper outlines a pathway to address the multi-scale disconnect in AGN studies, potentially allowing direct tracing of low-column-density HI in inflows/outflows and characterization of AGN duty cycles. This is a useful forward-looking contribution for facility planning in galaxy evolution research, though the manuscript itself contains no new derivations or data.

major comments (2)
  1. [Abstract] Abstract: The specific performance claims (HI sensitivity ~10^{19} cm^{-2} at arcsecond resolution in 10 hours; hundreds of AGN observable to 10^{21} W Hz^{-1}) are stated without any supporting calculations, error budgets, integration-time derivations, or citations to SKAO design documents. These numbers are load-bearing for the central thesis that SKAO solves the observational limitations.
  2. [SKA capabilities and multi-phase combination paragraphs] Paragraphs on SKA capabilities and multi-phase combination: The assertion that simultaneous Low/Mid observations plus arcsecond HI mapping will 'directly trace the typical low column density of HI gas in AGN inflows and outflows' and connect stochastic episodes to star-formation timescales is presented without quantitative discussion of kinematic discrimination, confusion limits, or how the data will distinguish feeding from feedback processes.
minor comments (2)
  1. The abstract contains several long, compound sentences that reduce readability; splitting them would improve clarity.
  2. A short table summarizing the key SKAO specifications cited (sensitivities, resolutions, frequencies) with references would help readers quickly assess the claims.

We thank the referee for the constructive review. The comments correctly identify that the performance metrics and observational assertions require better anchoring in the literature. We have revised the manuscript to address both points while preserving its character as a forward-looking science case.

  1. Referee: [Abstract] Abstract: The specific performance claims (HI sensitivity ~10^{19} cm^{-2} at arcsecond resolution in 10 hours; hundreds of AGN observable to 10^{21} W Hz^{-1}) are stated without any supporting calculations, error budgets, integration-time derivations, or citations to SKAO design documents. These numbers are load-bearing for the central thesis that SKAO solves the observational limitations.

    Authors: We agree that the quoted figures require explicit support. In the revised version we add citations to the SKAO1 System Baseline Design (SKA-TEL-SKO-0000002) and the SKA1 Science Performance documents, together with a short paragraph deriving the 10-hour HI column-density sensitivity from the standard radiometer equation using the AA4 array parameters and a 1-arcsec beam. The estimate of hundreds of AGN is now referenced to the expected SKA-Mid continuum survey depth and the local radio luminosity function from Best & Heckman (2012). These additions are confined to one new paragraph and two references so that the high-level nature of the paper is retained. revision: yes

  2. Referee: [SKA capabilities and multi-phase combination paragraphs] Paragraphs on SKA capabilities and multi-phase combination: The assertion that simultaneous Low/Mid observations plus arcsecond HI mapping will 'directly trace the typical low column density of HI gas in AGN inflows and outflows' and connect stochastic episodes to star-formation timescales is presented without quantitative discussion of kinematic discrimination, confusion limits, or how the data will distinguish feeding from feedback processes.

    Authors: The manuscript is a science-case overview rather than a technical simulation study; therefore a full quantitative treatment of confusion limits and kinematic separation lies outside its scope. Nevertheless, we accept that a brief discussion of the practical steps is warranted. The revised text now includes a short paragraph noting that (i) spectral-index separation between synchrotron jets and thermal star-formation emission is enabled by the simultaneous Low/Mid bands, (ii) kinematic discrimination of inflows versus outflows will rely on the combination with optical IFU data at matched resolution (as already demonstrated in existing PHANGS and ALMA studies), and (iii) the arcsecond HI sensitivity is sufficient to reach the column densities reported in the literature for AGN-driven outflows. We do not claim that SKAO data alone will fully separate feeding from feedback; the multi-wavelength synergy is emphasised. revision: partial
