2 Virial Shock Heating A gas velocity map overlayed on the emission-weighted temperature map of the cluster undergoing major merger at z=0.43. The map shows the average projected velocity and entropy in a 125h-1kpc (comoving) slice centered on the central density peak. The size of the region shown is 8h-1Mpc. D Nagai as halos collapse, the dark matter undergoes violent relaxation within the virial radius, dm shells cross and the pressure of the gas increases, prevents shell crossing of the gas gas is infalling at greater than the sound speed. pressure makes this velocity vanish at the center. because it s supersonic, info about the boundary condition can t propagate outwards, and a shock is created. as the shock propagates outwards, gas that crosses the shock is heated. this increases the sound speed and makes the interior flow subsonic. net result is transfer of KE of the collapse into thermal energy of the gas in order to persist, the gas internal to the shock has to have pressure.

10 in our statistics has only a small impact, increasing the apparent importance of cold accretion at low redshift (see the dotted line in Fig. 2 below). Our measured rates of smooth accretion really represent the sum of genuinely smooth gas flow and mergers with galaxies below our resolution limit, including systems that are not even under-resolved bound objects in the simulation but would nevertheless exist in the real Universe. In Section 4.1 we extrapolate the measured distribution of merger mass ratios to show that this subresolution merging is unlikely to be an important correction, so that our measured smooth accretion rates indeed correspond mainly to smooth gas flows. We use the following redshift spacing for determining T max values and calculating accretion rates: for 0! z! 1 we use!z 0.125, for 1 < z! 3.5 we use!z 0.25, for 3.5 < z! 5 we use!z 0.5, and for higher redshifts we use!z 1. In the cosmology we consider here, these redshift intervals correspond to time intervals of roughly!t = 0.25 Gyr for z > 3.5,!t 0.5 Gyr at z = 1.5 and!t 1.5 Gyr at z = 0. These time intervals are close to the typical infall time-scales at the corresponding outputs, except at Hydro Simulation: ~Massive M=3x1011 Kravtsov et al. z=4 M=3x1011 Tvir=1.2x106 Rvir=34 kpc virial shock ρ/ρ and T K is comprised of shock-heated gas in virialized haloes and, at the lower-density end, around filaments. The narrow, downward-sloping locus at ρ/ρ > 103 and T 104 K represents radiatively cooled, dense gas in galaxies. Cooling times at these densities are short, so gas remains close to the equilibrium temperature where photoionization heating balances radiative cooling, which is a slowly decreasing function of density. According to the conventional sketch described in the introduction, gas that ends up in galaxies starts in the diffuse phase, enters the shock-heated phase, then cools and condenses to reach the galactic phase. Fig. 1(b) plots the ρ T trajectories of 15 randomly selected gas particles accreted on to galaxies near z = 3, starting near z = 15. Some of these particles follow just the path described above. However, approximately half of them start in the diffuse IGM phase and move directly to the dense galactic phase without ever heating above 105 K. The virial temperature of the smallest resolved halo in the simulation is K at z = 3, so these particles have never been close to the virial temperature of any resolved halo. The separation between outputs in Fig. 1(b) is typically Gyr, and Less Massive M=1.8x1010 Kravtsov et al. cold infall virial radius Figure 1. Left: distribution of gas particles in the ρ T plane at z = 3, in the L22/128 simulation. One can easily identify three major phases: low-density, low-temperature gas in the photoionized IGM, shock-heated overdense gas and high-density radiatively cooled gas within galaxies. Right: trajectories of 15 particles that accreted on to galaxies shortly before z = 3, illustrating the cold (solid lines, circles) and hot (dashed lines, triangles) accretion modes. Hot-mode particles are shock heated above K before cooling, while cold-mode particles move directly from the diffuse IGM phase to the dense, galactic phase without ever heating above 105 K. Trajectories start at z = 14.9 and end at z = 3. Points mark the individual redshift outputs, which have typical time separations of Gyr. $ C z=9 M=1.8x1010 Tvir=3.5x105 Rvir=7 kpc Keres et al 2005 Fraction of cold/hot accretion Mass Distribution of Halo Gas SPH simulation disk Keres, Katz, Weinberg, Dav e 2004 cold flows Z=0, underestimating Mshock density shockheated sharp transition adiabatic infall M cold!

A Maller Cooling and Fragmentation in Astrophysical Plasmas A cooling plasma is hydrodynamically unstable (Field 1965) Higher density regions will cool faster, becoming denser and therefore cooling faster. Low density regions won t cool as quickly, will expand into the space left by the high density regions, thus decreasing their density and the rate that they cool.

14 When gas cools we expect a two phase medium to arise. AGN Feedback To survive warm clouds must have masses of solar masses. To get the observed Milky Way mass clouds must have masses of To match the observed properties of high velocity clouds requires cloud masses of 3-7 x 10 6 solar masses. A similar range of cloud masses is needed to produce quasar absorption systems. Irrespective of the cloud mass, the hot low density core sets an upper limit on the amount of mass that can cool of 2 x solar masses explaining the exponential cutoff in the Luminosity function.

15 The rise and fall of quasar activity The co-evolution of galaxies, quasars, and SMBH basic premise: major mergers feed gas to central BH and trigger AGN activity! built-in connection between BH and spheroid formation when galaxies merge, their central BH merge as well (conserving mass) energy injection from the AGN AGN radio mode The AGN radio mode: Gas Heating In the radio mode, quiescent hot gas accretes onto the central supermassive black hole. This ongoing accretion comes from the surrounding hot halo, where we capture the mean behaviour with an empirical equation. 200 z [ h -1 kpc ] x [ h -1 kpc ] T [K] z [ h -1 kpc ] x [ h -1 kpc ] Fig. 1.

16 Luminosity Functions Galaxy Colours and Ages B-V colour bi-modality and mean stellar age The K and bj-band luminosity functions with and without AGN Why Does Such Heating Work? Shock Heating Triggers AGN Feedback Unlike other heating mechanisms (e.g. super-winds, starbursts,...), AGN heating suppresses star formation without itself requiring star formation to efficiently operate. Unlike event mechanisms (e.g. merger driven quasar winds), whatever quenches star formation needs to be an ongoing process (local massive ellipticals are not quasars!). M>M shock More than enough energy is available in AGNs Hot gas is vulnerable to AGN feedback, while cold streams are shielded An AGN-like low energy heating source, fed from the hot x-ray halo, is an energetically feasible candidate Ṡhock heating is the trigger for AGN feedback in massive halos Kravtsov et al.

17 joint formation of SMBH and spheroids leads naturally to scaling relations BUT strong differential feedback needed also needed to make big BH at z~6 without overproducing BH mass density rise and fall of quasar activity (maybe) tied to same physics as star formation rate in galaxies (merger rate/gas supply) feedback 1 0 photo-ionization UV on dust cold hot SN M vir [M _ ] AGN + hot medium dynamical friction in groups groups R Somerville While halos grow by mergers and accretion M<M crit : The Blue Sequence cold gas supply disk growth & star formation SN-fdbk regulates star formation long duration bursts very blue mergers & bar instability bulges M>M crit : The Red Sequence shock-heated gas +AGN fdbk no new gas supply +gas exhausted + AGNs especially in bulges no disk growth, star formation shuts off passive stellar evolution red & dead further growth of spheroids by gas-poor mergers!"#$%&$'%(')*+),-.//'012'$%34567%1($'10'86569#'012367%1( ' <6;%67%=:'&115%(8>'?@'A6&B8214(;'C"1318:(:14$D E4A2:$1547%1('3457%F"6$:'31;:5'012'7":'/EGH'E762'012367%1('6(;'0::;A6&B!":(13:(1518%&65'31;:5'012'8656&7%&'I%(;$ +:76%5:;'&":3%&65':(2%&"3:(7 -":2365'&1(;4&7%1( G68(:71."#;21;#(63%&$ J1(.7":2365'2:567%=%$7%&'&13F1(:(7'C&1$3%&'26#$D )21I7"'10'$4F:236$$%=:'A56&B'"15:$'6(;'*)J'0::;A6&B M4AA5:'":67%(8'6(;'0::;A6&B'A#'*)J E"1&B';:7:&7%1(!"#$%&65'=%$&1$%7#'=%6'J6=%:2.E71B:$':N467%1(
