What does this mean for galaxies?

  • Need low accretion rates to trigger quenching
  • Gas fueling an AGN does not help to quench a

galaxy

Conclusions

  • IllustrisTNG reproduces colors of central galaxies
  • Quenching via kinetic feedback at (moderately) low

accretion rates

  • Luminous AGN do not cause quenching!
  • Most quenching events not triggered by a 


(gas rich) major merger
