We apply an analytic Markov Chain Monte Carlo model to a sample of 18AGN-driven biconical outflows that we identified from a sample of activegalaxies with double-peaked narrow emission lines at z < 0.1 in the SloanDigital Sky Survey. We find that 8/18 are best described as asymmetric bicones,8/18 are nested bicones, and 2/18 are symmetric bicones. From the geometry andkinematics of the models, we find that these moderate-luminosity AGN outflowsare large and energetic. The biconical outflows axes are randomly oriented withrespect to the photometric major axis of the galaxy, implying a randomlyoriented and clumpier torus to collimate the outflow, but the torus also allowssome radiation to escape equatorially. We find that 16/18 (89%) outflows areenergetic enough to drive a two-staged feedback process in their host galaxies.All of these outflows geometrically intersect the photometric major axis of thegalaxy, and 23% of outflow host galaxies are significantly redder or havesignificantly lower specific star formation rates when compared to a matchedsample of active galaxies.
