Active galactic nucleus driven jet feedback in cosmologically forming cool-core galaxy clusters I: The effect of hierarchical assembly on intra-cluster medium properties
Rainer Weinberger, Lorenzo Maria Perrone, Christoph Pfrommer +7
The atmospheres of cool-core galaxy clusters are excellent probes of astrophysical plasmas. However, how the interplay between assembly and active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback l…
Simulating realistic radio morphologies of Fanaroff-Riley I jets in a self-regulating cool-core cluster
Léna Jlassi, Rainer Weinberger, Christoph Pfrommer +3
Active galactic nucleus (AGN) jets radiate radio synchrotron emission displaying a wide range of morphologies. At the same time, they provide heat to prevent cooling flows in cool-…
Revisiting radio synchrotron diagnostics in star-forming galaxies
Maria Werhahn, Christoph Pfrommer, Philipp Girichidis +7
Radio continuum observations are widely used to study cosmic ray (CR) electron populations and transport processes in star-forming galaxies, but their interpretation relies on seve…
Zooming in on radio relics -- II. How relic morphology probes density fluctuations at the edge of galaxy clusters
Joseph Whittingham, Christoph Pfrommer, Maria Werhahn +2
Gas properties in the outer intracluster medium (ICM) are not well-constrained, as traditional probes lose sensitivity at Mpc distances. We show that the morphology of radio relics…
Simulating cosmic ray electron spectra and radio emission from an AGN jet outburst in a cool-core cluster
Léna Jlassi, Rainer Weinberger, Christoph Pfrommer +3
Active galactic nucleus (AGN) powered jets can accelerate cosmic ray electrons, leading to the observed radio synchrotron emission. To simulate this emission, jet dynamics in galax…
Steady-State or Not? The Evolution of Cosmic Ray Electron Spectra in Galaxies
Maria Werhahn, Christoph Pfrommer, Joseph Whittingham +4
Cosmic ray (CR) electrons are key tracers of non-thermal processes in galaxies, yet their spectra are often modelled under the untested assumption of steady state between injection…
Zooming-in on cluster radio relics -- I. How density fluctuations explain the Mach number discrepancy, microgauss magnetic fields, and spectral index variations
Joseph Whittingham, Christoph Pfrommer, Maria Werhahn +2
It is generally accepted that radio relics are the result of synchrotron emission from shock-accelerated electrons. Current models, however, are still unable to explain several asp…
Paicos: A Python package for analysis of (cosmological) simulations performed with Arepo
Thomas Berlok, Léna Jlassi, Ewald Puchwein +1
We present Paicos, a new object-oriented Python package for analyzing simulations performed with Arepo. Paicos strives to reduce the learning curve for students and researchers get…
