The Evolution of AGN Activity in Brightest Cluster Galaxies

T. Somboonpanyakul, M. McDonald, A. Noble +73

We present the results of an analysis of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) observations on the full 2500 deg^2 South Pole Telescope (SPT)-SZ cluster sample. We describe a…

Observational Evidence for Enhanced Black Hole Accretion in Giant Elliptical Galaxies

Michael McDonald, Brian R. McNamara, Michael S. Calzadilla +5

We present a study of the relationship between black hole accretion rate (BHAR) and star formation rate (SFR) in a sample of giant elliptical galaxies. These galaxies, which live a…

Discovery of a Powerful >10^61 erg AGN Outburst in Distant Galaxy Cluster SPT-CLJ0528-5300

Michael S. Calzadilla, Michael McDonald, Matthew Bayliss +9

We present ~103 ks of Chandra observations of the galaxy cluster SPT-CLJ0528-5300 (SPT0528, z=0.768). This cluster harbors the most radio-loud (L_1.4GHz = 1.01 x 10^33 erg/s/Hz) ce…
