TLDR
In this article , the authors explore the consequences of a model in which energy released during blackhole accretion shuts down star formation when sigma-v exceeds a critical value determined by the galaxy's supernova heating rate.

Detection of magnetic fields in the circumgalactic medium of nearby galaxies using Faraday rotation

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used 2,461 residual rotation measures (RRMs) observed with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR), where the foreground contribution from the Milky Way is subtracted.

Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE). VI. The Circumgalactic Medium of L ∗ Galaxies Is Supported in an Emergent, Nonhydrostatic Equilibrium

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigate global hydrostatic equilibrium in the CGM using four highly resolved L * galaxies from the Figuring Out Gas & Galaxies in Enzo (FOGGIE) project.

A Global Inventory of Feedback

Timothy M. Heckman, +1 more
- 24 Jan 2023 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used available data to estimate the total amount of kinetic energy and momentum created per co-moving volume element over the history of the universe from three sources: massive stars and supernovae, radiation pressure and winds driven by supermassive black holes, and radio jets driven by massive black holes.

Testing the Limits of AGN Feedback and the Onset of Thermal Instability in the Most Rapidly Star-forming Brightest Cluster Galaxies

TL;DR: In this article , the authors measured spatially resolved star formation rates (SFRs) of ∼60-600 M ⊙yr−1.5 Gyr in seven of the most star-forming brightest cluster galaxies.
