The formation history of our Galaxy's nuclear stellar disc constrained from HST observations of the Quintuplet field
R. Schoedel, F. Nogueras-Lara, M. Hosek +9
Until recently it was thought that the nuclear stellar disc at the centre of our Galaxy was formed via quasi-continuous star formation over billions of years. However, an analysis…
A comparison between short GRB afterglows and AT2017gfo: shedding light on kilonovae properties
A. Rossi, G. Stratta, E. Maiorano +26
Multi-messenger astronomy received a great boost following the discovery of kilonova AT2017gfo, the optical counterpart of the gravitational wave source GW170817 associated with th…
Buoyant Bubbles in a Cooling Intracluster Medium I. Hydrodynamic Bubbles
A. Gardini
Over the past several years, numerous examples of X-ray cavities coincident with radio sources have been observed in so-called "cool core" clusters of galaxies. Motivated by these…
Simulating Chandra observations of galaxy clusters
A. Gardini, E. Rasia, P. Mazzotta +3
Numerical hydro-N-body simulations are very important tools for making theoretical predictions for the formation of galaxy clusters. They show that the atmospheres of clusters of g…
Simulations of Galaxy Clusters observed by Chandra
A. Gardini
A software package able to simulate imaging observations of galaxy clusters by the Chandra X-ray telescope is here presented. We start from high resolution N-body hydrodynamical si…
Constraining Lambda using cluster quadrupoles
A. Maccio`, A. Gardini, S. Ghigna +1
We examine how the statistics of the quadrupoles of (projected) cluster masses can discriminate between flat cold dark matter (CDM) universes with or without a cosmological constan…
