Splinter Meeting Multimessenger

Multi-messenger signatures of feedback processes in galaxies

Time: Wednesday September 17, 14:00-15:45 and 16:15-18:00 CEST (UTC+2)

Room: Jugendherberge Görlitz-Altstadt

Convenor(s): Dominik Bomans & Dominik Elsaesser
Ruhr University Bochum & TU Dortmund

AGN and massive stars in starbursts are the main sources of radiation and mechanical feedback into the interstellar medium of galaxies and therefore engines for galaxy evolution. The detailed physics of these feedback sources differ significantly and so their impact is not easy to disentangle. Adding cosmic rays and magnetic fields in galaxies and the circumgalactic medium to the mix, the observational signatures become even more complex. On the other hand, they cover the whole electro-magnetic spectrum and all energy ranges of particle-astrophysics, therefore providing a multitude of observational information. With new telescopes and instruments significant progress has been made in the understanding of the impact of different feedback modes in galaxies and this progress will likely accelerate further in the near future with SKA, the ELTs, CTA, and improved instrumentation at existing facilities coming online now. We plan for this splinter to combine multi-messenger / multi-wavelength information to explore the signatures of different feedback mechanisms and their interplay, as well as explore their effects on interstellar medium turbulence and cosmic ray transport.
