Discovery of Ghost Cavities in Abell 2597's X-ray Atmosphere
B. R. McNamara, M. W. Wise, P. E. J. Nulsen +10
A Chandra image of the central 100 kpc of the Abell 2597 cluster of galaxies shows bright, irregular, X-ray emission within the central dominant cluster galaxy (CDG), and two low s…
Interaction of Radio Lobes with the Hot Intracluster Medium: Driving Convective Outflow in Hydra A
P. E. J. Nulsen, L. P. David, B. R. McNamara +3
The radio lobes of Hydra A lie within cavities surrounded by a rim of enhanced X-ray emission in the intracluster gas. Although the bright rim appears cooler than the surrounding g…
Chandra Observation of the Radio Source / X-ray Gas Interaction in the Cooling Flow Cluster Abell 2052
Elizabeth L. Blanton, Craig L. Sarazin, Brian R. McNamara +1
We present a Chandra observation of Abell 2052, a cooling flow cluster with a central cD that hosts the complex radio source 3C 317. The data reveal ``holes'' in the X-ray emission…
