The Interaction of 3C401 with the Surrounding Intracluster Medium

Christopher S. Reynolds, Laura W. Brenneman, John T. Stocke

We present an observation of the radio-galaxy 3C401 and the surrounding intracluster medium (ICM) of its host galaxy cluster by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. This luminous radio-g…

Black Hole Spin in AGN and GBHCs

Christopher S. Reynolds, Laura W. Brenneman, David Garofalo

We discuss constraints on black hole spin and spin-related astrophysics as derived from X-ray spectroscopy. After a brief discussion about the robustness with which X-ray spectrosc…

O VII and O VIII absorption by hot gas in the vicinity of the Galaxy

B. McKernan, T. Yaqoob, C. S. Reynolds

(abridged) We searched for evidence of soft X-ray absorption by hot gas in the vicinity of the Galaxy in a small sample of fifteen type I AGN observed with the high resolution X-ra…

Iron Line Spectroscopy of NGC4593 with XMM-Newton: Where is the Black Hole Accretion Disk?

Christopher S. Reynolds, Laura W. Brenneman, Joern Wilms +1

We present an analysis of the 2-10keV XMM-Newton/EPIC-pn spectrum of the Seyfert-1 galaxy NGC4593. Apart from the presence of two narrow emission lines corresponding to the Kalpha…

Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Spectroscopy of Absorption and Emission Lines from the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4051

Shai Kaspi, W. N. Brandt, M. J. Collinge +2

We present three Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) observations of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC4051. The most prominent features in the far-ultraviolet (FUV) sp…

Buoyant radio-lobes in a viscous intracluster medium

Christopher S. Reynolds, Barry McKernan, Andrew C. Fabian +2

(Abridged) Ideal hydrodynamic models of the intracluster medium (ICM) in the core regions of galaxy clusters fail to explain both the observed temperature structure of this gas, an…
