Observational evidence of active galactic nuclei feedback

AC Fabian - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2012 - annualreviews.org
Radiation, winds, and jets from the active nucleus of a massive galaxy can interact with its
interstellar medium, and this can lead to ejection or heating of the gas. This terminates star …
