Gas Motions in Hydra-A: XRISM Constraints on ICM Kinematics Across Jet-Inflated Cavities
Anwesh Majumder, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +8
We report on two deep XRISM observations of the central and northern regions of Hydra-A's X-ray atmosphere covering the bubbles inflated by jets from the central galaxy's active ga…
XRISM detection of the 6.4 keV Fe K line in the radio galaxy Cygnus A
Anwesh Majumder, T. Heckman, L. Gu +7
We detail the spectral analysis of a 170 ks XRISM Resolve observation of the core of Cygnus A. The high spectral resolution of Resolve have enabled us to probe the inner accretion…
X-ray line diagnostics of the multi-phase gas in the Centaurus cluster core with XRISM/Resolve
Marie Kondo, Kotaro Fukushima, Kazunori Suda +18
We report the multi-temperature structure of the intracluster medium (ICM) in the Centaurus cluster core observed with XRISM/Resolve. Thanks to its high energy resolution, Resolve…
Chemical composition and enrichment of the Centaurus cluster core seen by XRISM/Resolve
F. Mernier, K. Fukushima, A. Simionescu +16
Hot, X-ray emitting atmospheres pervading galaxy clusters are rich in metals, which have been synthesised and released by asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, core-collapse superno…
Spectrally Resolved Gas Kinematics in Cygnus A: XRISM Detects AGN Jet-induced Velocity Dispersion in Multi-temperature Gas
Anwesh Majumder, T. Heckman, J. Meunier +8
We report spectral analysis on a 170 ks XRISM \textit{Resolve} exposure of the core of Cygnus A. Analyzing the full field of view spectrum in the keV band, we find evide…
The bulk motion of gas in the core of the Centaurus galaxy cluster
XRISM collaboration
Galaxy clusters, the largest gravitationally bound structures in the Universe, contain vast amounts of dark matter, galaxies, and hot ionised gas known as the intracluster medium (…
