Quasar Heating in Structure Formation Evan Scannapieco Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics UC Santa Barbara What Determines L*? A Classic Argument AGN in the X-ray B-band Quasar Luminosity Function AGN Heating ES Oh (2004) model Some small fraction of an AGNs luminosity is converted to mechanical input associated with jets or winds. Energy deposited into a thin shell (Sedov-Taylor blast) Post-shock entropy of the IGM directly impacts growth of further generations, if it heat things to the point that cooing can not occur within a Hubble time, then you stop forming stars.
