juliehl@stanford. edu Conclusion How does AGN feedback evolve in BCGs? Redshift = 0. 0 Redshift = 0. 55 5 Gyrs 1)No significant evolution in mechanical AGN feedback in BCGs (z = 0. 0 – 0. 55). 1)The nuclear X-ray luminosities of BCGs with X-ray cavities are rapidly evolving: A signifiant fraction will host a quasar by z=1 (i. e. outshine the cluster X-ray emission). 1)Future: SPT, Planck – many new high redshift clusters discovered.
