A merger shock traced by radio arcs and ultra-long radio tails in galaxy cluster A2142
Chong Ge, Ming Sun, Chris Nolting +2
Abell 2142 (A2142) is a massive, nearby galaxy cluster undergoing a complex merger. It exhibits an elongated X-ray morphology along the northwest-southeast axis and hosts four know…
Simulations of Precessing Jets and the Formation of X-shaped Radio Galaxies
Chris Nolting, Jay Ball, Tri M. Nguyen
Jet precession is sometimes invoked to explain asymmetries in radio galaxy (RG) jets and "X/S/Z-shape" radio galaxies, caused by the presence of a binary black hole companion to th…
Intracluster magnetic filaments and an encounter with a radio jet
Lawrence Rudnick, Marcus Bruggen, Gianfranco Brunetti +6
Thin synchrotron-emitting filaments are increasingly seen in the intracluster medium (ICM). We present the first example of a direct interaction between a magnetic filament, a radi…
Observations and Simulations of Radio Emission and Magnetic Fields in Minkowski's Object
C. Nolting, M. Lacy, S. Croft +4
We combine new data from the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array with previous radio observations to create a more complete picture of the ongoing interactions between the radio jet fr…
Shocked Narrow-Angle Tail Radio Galaxies: Simulations and Emissions
Brian J. O'Neill, T. W. Jones, Chris Nolting +1
We present a numerical study of the interactions between the elongated AGN outflows representing an evolved, narrow-angle tail (NAT) radio galaxy and planar, transverse ICM shock f…
Simulated Interactions Between Radio Galaxies and Cluster Shocks -- 2: Jet Axes Orthogonal to Shock Normals
Chris Nolting, T. W. Jones, Brian O'Neill +1
We report a 3D MHD simulation study of the interactions between radio galaxies and galaxy-cluster-media shocks in which the incident shock normals are orthogonal to the bipolar AGN…
