Talk Title: Black hole formation and feedback in cosmological simulations

Abstract: I will discuss hydrodynamical cosmological simulations of structure formation that self-consistently follow the growth of supermassive galactic black holes due to gas accretion and black hole mergers. We study different parameterizations of AGN feedback and explore, in particular, its impact on galactic star formation and the thermodynamic state of the intragroup and intracluster media.
