Black hole growth in hierarchical galaxy formation (2007)
Journal Article
Malbon, R., Baugh, C., Frenk, C., & Lacey, C. (2007). Black hole growth in hierarchical galaxy formation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 382(4), 1394-1414. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.12317.x

We incorporate a model for black hole growth during galaxy mergers into the semi-analytical galaxy formation model based on ΛCDM proposed by Baugh et al. Our black hole model has one free parameter, which we set by matching the observed zero-point of... Read More about Black hole growth in hierarchical galaxy formation.

Modelling shock heating in cluster mergers - I. Moving beyond the spherical accretion model (2007)
Journal Article
McCarthy, I., Bower, R., Balogh, M., Voit, G., Pearce, F., Theuns, T., …Frenk, C. (2007). Modelling shock heating in cluster mergers - I. Moving beyond the spherical accretion model. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 376(2), 497-522. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2007.11465.x

The thermal history of the intracluster medium (ICM) is complex. Heat input from cluster mergers, from active galactic nuclei (AGN) and from winds in galaxies offsets and may even prevent the cooling of the ICM. Consequently, the processes that set t...
