This work presents Gemini integral field spectroscopy of ten Type 1 radio-quiet quasars at $z<0.3$. The excellent image quality, coupled with a new technique to remove the point spread function using spectral information, allow the fitting of the underlying host on a spaxel-by-spaxel basis. Fits to stars, line-emitting gas, and interstellar absorption show that 100% of the sample host warm ionized and/or cool neutral outflows with spatially-averaged velocities ($\\langle v_{98\\%}\\rangle \\equiv \\langle v+2\\sigma\\rangle$) of 200-1300 km/s and peak velocities (maximum $v_{98\\%}$) of 500-2600 km/s. These minor-axis outflows are powered primarily by the central AGN, reach scales of 3-12 kpc, and often fill the field of view. Including molecular data and Type 2 quasar measurements, nearby quasars show a wide range in mass outflow rates ($dM/dt = 1$ to $>$1000 M$_\\odot$/yr) and momentum boosts [($c$ $dp/dt$)/L$_\\mathrm{AGN}$ = 0.01-20]. After extending the mass scale to Seyferts, $dM/dt$ and $dE/dt$ correlate with black hole mass ($dM/dt \\sim M_\\mathrm{BH}^{0.7\\pm0.3}$ and $dE/dt \\sim M_\\mathrm{BH}^{1.3\\pm0.5}$). Thus, the most massive black holes in the local universe power the most massive and energetic quasar-mode winds.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1708.05139v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1708.05139v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"quasar-mode-feedback-in-nearby-type-1-quasars","repo_url":"https://github.com/michael-reefe/loki.jl","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
