When sustained for megayears (refs.  ), high-power jets from supermassive black holes (SMBHs) become the largest galaxy-made structures in the Universe . By pumping electrons, atomic nuclei and magnetic fields into the intergalactic medium (IGM), the... Read More about Black hole jets on the scale of the cosmic web..

Journal Article
Timmerman, R., van Weeren, R. J., Botteon, A., Röttgering, H. J. A., Morabito, L. K., & Sweijen, F. (2024). The first high-redshift cavity power measurements of cool-core galaxy clusters with the International LOFAR Telescope.

Radio-mode feedback associated with the active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at the cores of galaxy clusters injects a large amount of energy into the intracluster medium (ICM), offsetting radiative losses through X-ray emission. This mechanism prevents the... Read More about The first high-redshift cavity power measurements of cool-core galaxy clusters with the International LOFAR Telescope.
