A Deep Chandra Observation of the AGN Outburst and Merger in Hickson Compact Group 62

D. A. Rafferty, L. Bîrzan, P. E. J. Nulsen +4

We report on an analysis of new Chandra data of the galaxy group HCG 62, well known for possessing cavities in its intragroup medium (IGM) that were inflated by the radio lobes of…

The unusual X-ray morphology of NGC4636 revealed by deep Chandra observations: cavities and shocks created by past AGN outbursts

A. Baldi, W. Forman, C. Jones +5

We present Chandra ACIS-I and ACIS-S observations (200 ks in total) of the X-ray luminous elliptical galaxy NGC 4636, located in the outskirts of the Virgo cluster. A soft ba…

Isotropic AGN Heating with Small Radio Quiet Bubbles in the NGC 5044 Group

L. David, C. Jones, S. Giacintucci +5

(abridged) A Chandra observation of the X-ray bright group NGC 5044 shows that the X-ray emitting gas has been strongly perturbed by recent outbursts from the central AGN and also…

Chandra observations of the galaxy group AWM 5: cool core re-heating and thermal conduction suppression

A. Baldi, W. Forman, C. Jones +4

We present an analysis of a 40 ksec Chandra observation of the galaxy group AWM 5. It has a small ( kpc) dense cool core with a temperature of keV and the temperat…

Radiative Efficiency and Content of Extragalactic Radio Sources: Toward a Universal Scaling Relation Between Jet Power and Radio Power

L. Birzan, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +2

We present an analysis of the energetics and particle content of the lobes of 24 radio galaxies at the cores of cooling clusters. The radio lobes in these systems have created visi…
