Feedback in Galaxy Formation

arXiv:1102.0283 · doi:10.1017/S1743921311022939

Abstract

I review the outstanding problems in galaxy formation theory, and the role of feedback in resolving them. I address the efficiency of star formation, the galactic star formation rate, and the roles of supernovae and supermassive black holes.
