Neutron Star Observations: Prognosis for Equation of State Constraints

James M. Lattimer, Maddapa Prakash

We investigate how current and proposed observations of neutron stars can lead to an understanding of the state of their interiors and the key unknowns: the typical neutron star ra…

Radio Properties of Cavities in the ICM: Imprints of AGN Activity

L. Birzan, B. R. McNamara, C. L. Carilli +2

We present new, high resolution radio images of sources associated with cD galaxies and X-ray cavity systems located in cluster cores. The cavity properties derived from archival C…

The Growth of Black Holes and Bulges at the Cores of Cooling Flows

D. A. Rafferty, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +1

Central cluster galaxies (cDs) in cooling flows are growing rapidly through gas accretion and star formation. At the same time, AGN outbursts fueled by accretion onto supermassive…

X-ray Supercavities in the Hydra A Cluster and the Outburst History of the Central Galaxy's Active Nucleus

M. W. Wise, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +2

A 227 ksec Chandra Observatory X-ray image of the hot plasma in the Hydra A cluster has revealed an extensive cavity system. The system was created by a continuous outflow or a ser…

Catching a bullet: direct evidence for the existence of dark matter

D. Clowe, S. W. Randall, M. Markevitch

We present X-ray and weak lensing observations of the merging cluster system 1E0657-556. Due to the recently collision of a merging subcluster with the main cluster, the X-ray plas…

XMM-Newton view of MS0735+7421: the most energetic AGN outburst in a galaxy cluster

Myriam Gitti, Brian R. McNamara, Paul E. J. Nulsen +1

We discuss the possible cosmological effects of powerful AGN outbursts in galaxy clusters by starting from the results of an XMM-Newton observation of the supercavity cluster MS073…
