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 ...
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 ...
