A unified feedback mechanism with jets

I will describe a model where jets launched by the central compact object drive the feedback in cooling flow clusters, at galaxy formation, and in exploding core collapse supernovae. The common conditions in all types of objects is that the jets don't penetrate the ambient gas, and the cooling time of their postshock gas is longer than the flow time. This is termed the penetrating-jet feedback model.
