A detached double X-ray tail in the merging galaxy cluster Z8338 with a large double tail

Chong Ge, Ming Sun, Paul E. J. Nulsen +3

When subhalos infall into galaxy clusters, their gas content is ram pressure stripped by the intracluster medium (ICM) and may turn into cometary tails. We report the discovery of…

Hidden Cooling Flows in Clusters of Galaxies III: Accretion onto the Central Black Hole

A. C. Fabian, J. S. Sanders, G. J. Ferland +3

Recently, we have uncovered Hidden Cooling Flows (HCF) in the X-ray spectra of the central Brightest Galaxies of 11 clusters, 1 group and 2 elliptical galaxies. Here we report such…

A Virgo Environmental Survey Tracing Ionised Gas Emission (VESTIGE) XV. The Halpha luminosity function of the Virgo cluster

A. Boselli, M. Fossati, P. Cote +17

We use a complete set of deep narrow-band imaging data for 384 galaxies gathered during the VESTIGE survey to derive the first Halpha luminosity function (LF) of the Virgo cluster…

An Enigmatic 380 kpc Long Linear Collimated Galactic Tail

Dennis Zaritsky, Jacob P. Crossett, Yara L. Jaffé +7

We present an intriguing, serendipitously-detected system consisting of an S0/a galaxy, which we refer to as the "Kite", and a highly-collimated tail of gas and stars that extends…

The far side of the Galactic bar/bulge revealed through semi-regular variables

Daniel R. Hey, Daniel Huber, Benjamin J. Shappee +8

The Galactic bulge and bar are critical to our understanding of the Milky Way. However, due to the lack of reliable stellar distances, the structure and kinematics of the bulge/bar…

A deep dive: Chandra observations of the NGC 4839 group falling into the Coma cluster

M. S. Mirakhor, S. A. Walker, J. Runge

Cosmological simulations of structure formation predict that galaxy clusters continue to grow and evolve through ongoing mergers with group-scale systems. During these merging even…

Measuring the ICM velocity structure in the Ophiuchus cluster

Efrain Gatuzz, J. S. Sanders, K. Dennerl +8

We have found evidence of bulk velocities following active galactic nucleus (AGN) bubbles in the Virgo cluster and galaxy motions in the Centaurus cluster. In order to increase the…

Turbulence in the Tail of a Jellyfish Galaxy

Yuan Li, Rongxin Luo, Matteo Fossati +2

When galaxies move through the intracluster medium (ICM) inside galaxy clusters, the ram pressure of the ICM can strip the gas from galaxies. The stripped gas forms tails on the tr…

HST viewing of spectacular star-forming trails behind ESO 137-001

William Waldron, Ming Sun, Rongxin Luo +8

We present the results from the HST WFC3 and ACS data on an archetypal galaxy undergoing ram pressure stripping (RPS), ESO 137-001, in the nearby cluster Abell 3627. ESO 137-001 is…
