Chaotic cold accretion in giant elliptical galaxies heated by AGN cosmic rays
Chaoran Wang, Mateusz Ruszkowski, H. -Y. Karen Yang
Black hole feedback plays a central role in shaping the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of elliptical galaxies. We systematically study the impact of plasma physics on the evolution of…
Supermassive Black Hole Feedback
Mateusz Ruszkowski, Daisuke Nagai, Irina Zhuravleva +23
Understanding the processes that drive galaxy formation and shape the observed properties of galaxies is one of the most interesting and challenging frontier problems of modern ast…
Physics of cosmic plasmas from high angular resolution X-ray imaging of galaxy clusters
Maxim Markevitch, Esra Bulbul, Eugene Churazov +15
Galaxy clusters are massive dark matter-dominated systems filled with X-ray emitting, optically thin plasma. Their large size and relative simplicity (at least as astrophysical obj…
Galaxy Winds in the Age of Hyperdimensional Astrophysics
Grant R. Tremblay, Evan E. Schneider, Alexey Vikhlinin +9
The past decade began with the first light of ALMA and will end at the start of the new era of hyperdimensional astrophysics. Our community-wide movement toward highly multiwavelen…
"SZ spectroscopy" in the coming decade: Galaxy cluster cosmology and astrophysics in the submillimeter
Kaustuv Basu, Jens Erler, Jens Chluba +30
Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effects were first proposed in the 1970s as tools to identify the X-ray emitting hot gas inside massive clusters of galaxies and obtain their velocities rela…
Cosmic Ray Acceleration of Cool Clouds in the Circumgalactic Medium
Joshua Wiener, Ellen G. Zweibel, Mateusz Ruszkowski
We investigate a mechanism for accelerating cool (10 K) clouds in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) with cosmic rays (CRs), possibly explaining some characteristics of observed h…
