– How do the outflows affect the inflows? …Need to maintain Inflow + Reservoir = SFR + Outflow

Conclusions

- Cosmological inflow rate Mdot/M ~ 0.03 Gyr-1 (1+z)2.5 M α exp(-0.8z)

- Steady state: SFR ~ accretion rate, Mgas~const., as long as τsfr ~ ε-1tff

- Shock heating scale Mv~1012M

- cold flows / hot medium - bimodality

- High-z massive galaxies fed by cosmic-web streams, smooth & mergers

Certain robust predictions for high-z galaxies in λCDM cosmology

- ~3 co-planar streams (70%) in a pancake (20%)

- ~50% penetration into the galaxy; instabilities, messy region near disk

- Streams (mostly one) transport AM. AM exchange in the inner halo.

- Cold streams are observable in Lya emission (LAB) and absorption (LLS)

- Outflows are in harmony with the in-streams (tentative)
