Frying Doughnuts: What can the reprocessing of X-rays to IR tell us about the AGN environment?
B. McKernan, K. E. S. Ford, N. Chang +1
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) produce vast amounts of high energy radiation deep in their central engines. X-rays either escape the AGN or are absorbed and re-emitted mostly as IR.…
Suzaku Observations of Local Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies
Stacy H. Teng, Sylvain Veilleux, Naohisa Anabuki +7
We report the results from our analysis of {\it Suzaku} XIS (0.5-10 keV) and HXD/PIN (15-40 keV) observations of five well-known local ULIRGs: {\em IRAS} F05189-2524, {\em IRAS} F0…
Regulation of thermal conductivity in hot galaxy clusters by MHD turbulence
Steven A. Balbus, Christopher S. Reynolds
The role of thermal conduction in regulating the thermal behavior of cooling flows in galaxy clusters is reexamined. Recent investigations have shown that the anisotropic Coulomb h…
The Accretion Disk Wind in the Black Hole GRO J1655-40
J. M. Miller, J. Raymond, C. S. Reynolds +3
We report on simultaneous Chandra/HETGS and RXTE observations of the transient stellar-mass black hole GRO J1655-40, made during its 2005 outburst. Chandra reveals a line-rich X-ra…
A deep Chandra observation of Abell 4059: a new face to radio-mode AGN feedback?
Christopher S. Reynolds, Elyse A. Casper, Sebastian Heinz
A deep Chandra observation of the cooling core cluster Abell 4059 (A4059) is presented. Previous studies have found two X-ray cavities in the central regions of A4059 together with…
Initial Measurements of Black Hole Spin in GX 339-4 from Suzaku Spectroscopy
J. M. Miller, C. S. Reynolds, A. C. Fabian +6
We report on a deep Suzaku observation of the stellar-mass black hole GX 339-4 in outburst. A clear, strong, relativistically-shaped iron emission line from the inner accretion dis…
