Luminosity functions of LMXBs in Centaurus A: globular clusters versus the field
R. Voss, M. Gilfanov, G. R. Sivakoff +16
We study the X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of low mass X-ray binaries (LMXB) in the nearby early-type galaxy Centaurus A, concentrating primarily on two aspects of binary populat…
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…
The Globular Cluster Systems around NGC 3311 and NGC 3309
Elizabeth Wehner, Bill Harris, Brad Whitmore +2
We present extensive new photometry in (g',i') of the large globular cluster (GC) system around NGC 3311, the central cD galaxy in the Hydra cluster. Our GMOS data cover a 5.5' fie…
Globular Clusters and X-ray Point Sources in Centaurus A (NGC 5128)
Kristin A. Woodley, Somak Raychaudhury, Ralph P. Kraft +6
We detect 353 X-ray point sources, mostly low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), in four Chandra observations of Centaurus A (NGC 5128), the nearest giant early-type galaxy, and correlat…
Where Centaurus A gets its X-ray knottiness
D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw, R. P. Kraft +15
We report an X-ray spectral study of the transverse structure of the Centaurus A jet using new data from the Chandra Cen A Very Large Project. We find that the spectrum steepens wi…
