X-ray Constraints on the Hot Gas Content of Early-type Galaxies in Virgo

Meicun Hou, Zhiyuan Li, Christine Jones +2

We present a systematic study of the diffuse hot gas around early-type galaxies (ETGs) residing in the Virgo cluster, based on archival {\it Chandra} observations. Our representati…

A Chandra X-ray Survey of Optically Selected AGN Pairs

Meicun Hou, Zhiyuan Li, Xin Liu

We present a Chandra archival study of optically selected AGN pairs at a median redshift 0.1. Out of 1286 AGN pairs (with projected separations kpc and v…

A Trio of Massive Black Holes Caught in the Act of Merging

Xin Liu, Meicun Hou, Zhiyuan Li +6

We report the discovery of SDSS J0849+1114 as the first known triple Type 2 Seyfert nucleus. It represents three active black holes that are identified from new spatially resolved…

Active Galactic Nucleus Pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. III. Chandra X-ray Observations Unveil Obscured Double Nuclei

Meicun Hou, Xin Liu, Hengxiao Guo +3

We present Chandra ACIS-S X-ray imaging spectroscopy for five dual active galactic nucleus (AGN) candidates. Our targets were drawn from a sample of 1286 [O III]-selected AGN pairs…

Chandra Detection of Intra-cluster X-ray Sources in Fornax

Xiangyu Jin, Meicun Hou, Zhenlin Zhu +1

Based on archival {\it Chandra} observations with a total exposure of 1.3 Ms, we study X-ray point sources in the Fornax cluster of galaxies, with the primary aim of searching for…

Deep Chandra observations of X-ray point sources in M87

Luan Luan, Christine Jones, William R. Forman +6

We present a study of X-ray source populations in M87, the cD galaxy of the Virgo cluster, using 12 archival {\it Chandra} observations with a total exposure of 680 ks spanni…
