Gas sloshing and radio galaxy dynamics in the core of the 3C 449 group
(2013-02-10)
We present results from a 140 ks Chandra/ACIS-S observation of the hot gas around the canonical FR I radio galaxy 3C 449. An earlier, shorter 30 ks Chandra observation of the group gas showed an unusual entropy distribution ...
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 ...
The gas dynamics of NGC 4472 revealed by XMM-Newton
(2011)
We present results from a 100 ks XMM-Newton observation of the hot gas in the Virgo cluster elliptical galaxy NGC 4472. We find a surface brightness discontinuity ∼21 kpc north of the nucleus, consistent with being a contact ...
Long-term monitoring of the dynamics and particle acceleration of knots in the jet of Centaurus A
(2010)
We present new and archival multi-frequency radio and X-ray data for Centaurus A obtained over almost 20 years at the Very Large Array and with Chandra, with which we measure the X-ray and radio spectral indices of jet ...
A Chandra observation of 3C 288 - reheating the cool core of a 3 keV cluster from a nuclear outburst at z=0.246
(2010)
We present results from a 42 ks Chandra/ACIS-S observation of the transitional FR I/FR II radio galaxy 3C 288 at z = 0.246. We detect ~3 keV gas extending to a radius of ~0.5 Mpc with a 0.5-2.0 keV luminosity of 6.6 × 1043 ...
