Gravitational Quenching in Massive Galaxies and Clusters by Clumpy Accretion
Avishai Dekel, Yuval Birnboim
We consider a simple gravitational-heating mechanism for the long-term quenching of cooling flows and star formation in massive dark-matter haloes hosting ellipticals and clusters.…

Bursting and Quenching in Massive Galaxies without Major Mergers or AGNs
Yuval Birnboim, Avishai Dekel, Eyal Neistein
We simulate the buildup of galaxies by spherical gas accretion through dark matter haloes, subject to the development of virial shocks. We find that a uniform cosmological accretio…
