Abstract

Abstract Broad Absorption Line Quasars (BALQs) generally exhibit significant outflows that may interact with the surrounding medium, resulting in radio emission. We selected a sample of 13 powerful radio-quiet (RQ) BALQs, where the UV outflow kinetic power is measurable, and detected nine of them with the Very Large Array A configuration at 5.5 and 9.0 GHz. The radio emission is mostly unresolved and is generally constrained within a scale of
