Shocks, seyferts, and the supernova remnant connection : A chandra observation of the circinus galaxy
(2012-10-20)
We analyze new Chandra observations of the nearest (D = 4 Mpc) Seyfert 2 active galaxy, Circinus, and match them to pre-existing radio, infrared, and optical data to study the kpc-scale emission. The proximity of Circinus ...
Rejuvenated radio galaxies J0041+3224 and J1835+6204 : how long can the quiescent phase of nuclear activity last?
(2012-08)
We present radio observations of two well-known doubledouble radio galaxies, J0041+3224 and J1835+6204, at frequencies ranging from 150 to 8460 MHz, using both the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope and the Very Large Array. ...
A transient sub-Eddington black hole X-ray binary candidate in the dust lanes of Centaurus A
(2012-04-20)
We report the discovery of a bright X-ray transient CXOU J132527.6-430023 in the nearby early-type galaxy NGC5128. The source was first detected over the course of five Chandra observations in 2007, reaching an unabsorbed ...
An active galactic nucleus driven shock in the intracluster medium around the radio galaxy 3C310
(2012-04-10)
We present results from a 57.6 ks Chandra observation of the cluster gas associated with the fat-double radio galaxy 3C 310. We find a surface brightness discontinuity in the gas outside the southern radio lobe that we ...
