TL;DR
This paper reviews numerical simulations of large-scale AGN outflows driven by radiation, highlighting their effectiveness in removing matter but inefficiency in energy removal, and discusses implications for AGN feedback.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive summary of simulation results on AGN-driven outflows and their role in galaxy evolution, emphasizing the matter-energy removal efficiency.
Findings
Outflows efficiently remove matter from galaxies.
Outflows are inefficient at removing energy.
Simulations support the AGN feedback mechanism.
Abstract
We summarize the results from numerical simulations of mass outflows from AGN. We focus on simulations of outflows driven by radiation from large-scale inflows. We discuss the properties of these outflows in the context of the so-called AGN feedback problem. Our main conclusion is that this type of outflows are efficient in removing matter but inefficient in removing energy.
