The Evolution of Galaxies and Clusters at High Spatial Resolution with Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) by Russell, Helen R., Lopez, Laura A., Allen, Steven W., Chartas, George, Choudhury, Prakriti Pal, Dupke, Renato A., Fabian, Andrew C., Flores, Anthony M., Garofali, Kristen, Hodges-Kluck, Edmund, Koss, Michael J., Lanz, Lauranne, Lehmer, Bret D., Li, Jiang-Tao, Maksym, W.

“…On large scales bordering the cosmic web, feedback drives enriched gas out of galaxies and groups, seeding the intergalactic medium with heavy elements. In this way, feedback shapes galaxy evolution by shutting down star formation and ultimately curtailing the growth of structure after the peak at redshift 2&ndash;3. …”

The Carbon Content of Intergalactic Gas at Z=4.25 and Its Evolution toward Z=2.4 by Simcoe, Robert A.

The impact of feedback on cosmological gas accretion by Nelson, Dylan, Genel, Shy, Vogelsberger, Mark, Springel, Volker, Sijacki, Debora, Hernquist, Lars, Torrey, Paul A.

“…We explore: (a) the accretion rate of material contributing to the net growth of galaxies and originating directly from the intergalactic medium, finding that feedback strongly suppresses the raw, as well as the net, inflow of this ‘smooth mode’ gas at all redshifts, regardless of the temperature history of newly acquired gas. …”

Spectroscopic analysis of primeval galaxy candidates by Caruana, J

“…A model where the fraction of high rest-frame equivalent width emitters follows the trend seen at z = 3−6.5 is inconsistent with these non-detections at z = 7−9 at a confidence level of ∼ 91%, which may indicate that a significant neutral HI fraction (χHI) in the intergalactic medium suppresses the Lyman-α line at z &gt; 7. …”

Lorentz Symmetry Group, Retardation, Intergalactic Mass Depletion and Mechanisms Leading to Galactic Rotation Curves by Asher Yahalom

“…Every natural system, such as stars and galaxies and even galactic clusters, exchanges mass with its environment, for example, the sun loses mass through solar wind and galaxies accrete gas from the intergalactic medium. This means that all natural gravitational systems have a finite retardation distance. …”
