Magnetic field evolution in feedback-dominated galaxies

Yue Samuel Lu, Dušan Kereš, Philip F. Hopkins +1

Over the last decade, magnetic fields (B-fields) have become a common ingredient in galaxy formation simulations. Although seemingly unimportant in matching observational constrain…

The Virgo Cluster as a Case Study for Ancient Cosmic Ray Halos in Radio and X-rays

Philip F. Hopkins, Emily M. Silich, Jack Sayers +2

Virgo is the nearest cool core (CC) galaxy cluster, and is archetypal of the class of X-ray weak CCs. Despite the X-ray continuum implying a large cooling rate ($\gtrsim 10\,{\rm M…

The MegaWave Radio Surveyor

T. Joseph W. Lazio, Evgenya Shkolnik, James Aguirre +40

Several Decadal-level questions in astrophysics, exoplanets, astrobiology, and cosmology can be addressed only at low radio frequencies inaccessible from Earth. The MegaWave Radio…

An Inverse-Compton-Boosted Cool Core Unifies Perseus's Radio and X-ray Halos

Philip F. Hopkins, Emily M. Silich, Jack Sayers +2

Perseus is the brightest X-ray strong cool-core (SCC) cluster, with a bright central radio and -ray source plus low-frequency radio mini and giant halos. It is the archetype of…

Observational Implications of Cosmic Ray-Inverse Compton 'Boosted' Cool Cores in Clusters

Philip F. Hopkins, Emily Silich, Jack Sayers +2

X-ray luminous cool-core (CC) galaxy clusters contain powerful cosmic ray (CR) sources. High-energy CRs powering GHz synchrotron lose energy rapidly, but long-lived (~Gyr-old) popu…
