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…
Clusters Hiding Under Millimeter Sources (CHUMS) I: Extreme CHUMS
Harshda Saxena, Adam B. Mantz, Jack Sayers +2
Galaxy cluster abundance provides a powerful probe of the CDM model and enables precise constraints on cosmological parameters. Millimeter-wavelength surveys detect clusters thr…
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…
