Description
Feedback in the form of outflows is believed to be a key ingredient in galaxy evolution. In cosmic noon galaxies, outflows have mainly been detected - and extensively studied - in the ionised gas phase. However, it has been surmised that a large fraction of outflowing mass may be in molecular gas form, as suggested by results of luminous but rare AGNs and quasars. To gain insights into the prevalence and impact of molecular gas outflows on galaxy evolution as a whole, we searched for the telltale broad velocity signature in CO line emission, capitalizing on the IRAM/PHIBSS CO survey of 175 typical near-main-sequence star-forming galaxies at 0.5
