Title: "Panchromatic View of Jet Feedback in Radio Galaxies"
Abstract: Feedback due to active galactic nuclei is one of the key components of the current paradigm of galaxy evolution; however, our understanding of its process remains incomplete. Radio galaxies with strong rotational H2 emission provide an interesting window into the effect of radio jet feedback on their host galaxies. These galaxies contain large masses of warm (>100 K) H2, which cannot solely be heated by star formation, instead requiring jet-driven ISM turbulence to power the molecular emission. I will discuss the insights that multi-wavelength observations of these galaxies yield on the process by which radio jets interact with their hosts, as well as the impact of these jets on the star formation activity in these galaxies.
