AGN feedback refers to the energetic influence of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) on their host galaxies, which can regulate star formation and affect the overall evolution of galaxies. This process involves the release of energy and momentum from accreting supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, shaping their environment through various feedback mechanisms. It plays a critical role in understanding how galaxies co-evolve with their central black holes and the surrounding interstellar medium.
congrats on reading the definition of AGN Feedback. now let's actually learn it.
