活动星系核反馈的数值模拟研究
Numerical Simulations of Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback
摘要
Abstract
As supermassive black holes located at galactic centers accrete matter, they release electromagnetic radiation, winds, and jets, regulating the evolution of their host galaxies and their own growth. This is the so-called active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback. As a high-energy astrophysical phenomenon, it plays an important role in the gas distribution and star formation in galactic bulges, galaxies, and even galaxy clusters. It has thus become a key ingredient in current galaxy formation models and an important hot topic in contemporary astrophysics. In this paper, we review the current status of this young field, introducing jet-mode AGN feedback, radiative-mode AGN feedback, AGN winds, and the Fermi bubbles in the Milky Way. As the major theoretical tool to investigate physical mechanisms of AGN feedback and its impact in galaxy formation, numerical simulations of AGN feedback have become a very active research field. We discuss major scientific problems and recent progresses in this field, providing several suggestions on future development strategies for our Chinese astronomy community.关键词
