High-energy particle acceleration at the radio-lobe shock of Centaurus A
J. H. Croston, R. P. Kraft, M. J. Hardcastle +19
We present new results on the shock around the southwest radio lobe of Centaurus A using data from the Chandra Very Large Programme observations. The X-ray spectrum of the emission…
Evidence for Non-Hydrostatic Gas Motions in the Hot ISM of Centaurus A
R. P. Kraft, M. J. Hardcastle, G. R. Sivakoff +16
We present preliminary results from a deep (600 ks) {\em Chandra} observation of the hot interstellar medium of the nearby early-type galaxy Centaurus A (Cen A). We find a surface…
A Transient Black-Hole Low-Mass X-Ray Binary Candidate in Centaurus A
Gregory R. Sivakoff, Ralph P. Kraft, Andrés Jordán +14
We report the discovery of a bright transient X-ray source, CXOU J132518.2-430304, towards Centaurus A (Cen A) using six new Chandra X-Ray Observatory observations in 2007 March--M…
Low-Mass X-ray Binaries and Globular Clusters in Centaurus A
Andres Jordan, Gregory R. Sivakoff, Dean E. McLaughlin +19
We present results of Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of globular clusters (GCs) and low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the central regions of Cen…
The Active Nucleus of IC4970: A Nearby Example of Merger-Induced Cold-Gas Accretion
M. E. Machacek, R. P. Kraft, M. L. N. Ashby +3
We present results from Chandra X-ray and Spitzer mid-infrared observations of the interacting galaxy pair NGC6872/IC4970 in the Pavo galaxy group and show that the smaller compani…
New results on particle acceleration in the Centaurus A jet and counterjet from a deep Chandra observation
M. J. Hardcastle, R. P. Kraft, G. R. Sivakoff +16
We present new deep Chandra observations of the Centaurus A jet, with a combined on-source exposure time of 719 ks. These data allow detailed X-ray spectral measurements to be made…
