Suzaku diagnostics of the energetics in the lobes of the giant radio galaxy 3C 35

Naoki Isobe, Hiromi Seta, Poshak Gandhi +1

The Suzaku observation of a giant radio galaxy 3C 35 revealed faint extended X-ray emission, associated with its radio lobes and/or host galaxy. After careful subtraction of the X-…

Evidence of non-thermal X-ray emission from radio lobes of Cygnus A

Y. Yaji, M. S. Tashiro, N. Isobe +5

Using deep Chandra ACIS observation data for Cygnus A, we report evidence of non-thermal X-ray emission from radio lobes surrounded by a rich intra-cluster medium (ICM). The diffus…
