Too Hot to Handle - The Role of Supermassive Black Holes in Heating the Low Redshift Intergalactic Medium

Explore the role of supermassive black holes in heating the low redshift intergalactic medium in this 30-minute conference talk by Megan Tillman from Rutgers University. Delve into the application of astrostatistics and machine learning tools to galaxy formation and evolution, focusing on the Simba simulation and AGN feedback mechanisms. Examine the importance of jet feedback and its impact on the intergalactic medium. Gain insights into the CAMELS project and its relevance to understanding cosmic structures. Conclude with a discussion on future research directions and the next steps in this field of study.
