NGC 4936: abundant multi-phase medium in the central weak X-ray cool core and optically dark H I clouds in the group

Prathamesh Tamhane, Ming Sun, Hao Chen +6

We present a multiwavelength analysis of NGC 4936, the central galaxy of a weak cool-core group hosting an unusually large cold/warm gas reservoir. NGC 4936 contains $\sim2\times10…

Reigniting the FUSE II: O VI Emission in Massive Elliptical Galaxies

Michael Reefe, Michael McDonald, Greg L. Bryan +6

This is the second paper in a series where we examine archival far-ultraviolet spectroscopy of 29 massive elliptical galaxies from the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE)…

Mapping Gas Accretion and Stellar Kinematics to Sub-kiloparsec Scales in NGC 4696 with JWST/NIRSpec

Mathieu Marquis, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo, Olivia Pereira +35

We present JWST/NIRSpec IFU spectroscopy of the central pc () of NGC 4696, the BCG in the Centaurus cluster. Leveraging the (…

JWST reveals how black holes are fed: kiloparsec-scale multiphase filaments feed sub-kiloparsec circumnuclear disks

Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo, Hyunseop Choi, Minghao Guo +35

The Centaurus cluster is one of the most important archetypes of radio-mode AGN feedback, with its central galaxy, NGC 4696, launching powerful jets that inflate X-ray cavities and…

HST view of NGC 5044: Constraints on Filament Widths, Magnetic Support, Multiphase Structure, and Comparison with Cluster Environments

Prathamesh Tamhane, Ming Sun, William Waldron +12

We present new Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging of ionised filaments in the brightest group galaxy NGC 5044. These filaments extend several kiloparsecs and have widths of $\sim…

New Black Hole Spin Values for Sagittarius A* Obtained with the Outflow Method

Ruth A. Daly, Megan Donahue, Christopher P. O'Dea +3

Six archival Chandra observations are matched with eight sets of radio data and studied in the context of the outflow method to measure and study the spin properties of $\rm{Sgr ~A…
