How merger-driven gas motions in galaxy clusters can turn AGN bubbles into radio relics
John A. ZuHone, Maxim Markevitch, Rainer Weinberger +2
Radio relics in galaxy clusters are extended synchrotron sources produced by cosmic-ray electrons in the G magnetic field. Many relics are found in the cluster periphery and hav…
A deep learning view of the census of galaxy clusters in IllustrisTNG
Y. Su, Y. Zhang, G. Liang +8
The origin of the diverse population of galaxy clusters remains an unexplained aspect of large-scale structure formation and cluster evolution. We present a novel method of using X…
Phase-modulated X-ray Emission from Cepheids due to Pulsation-Driven Shocks
Sofia-Paraskevi Moschou, Nektarios Vlahakis, Jeremy J. Drake +4
Cepheids are pulsating variable stars with a periodic chromospheric response at UV wavelengths close to their minimum radius phase. Recently, an X-ray variable signature was captur…
Is there an enormous cold front at the virial radius of the Perseus cluster?
S. A. Walker, M. S. Mirakhor, J. ZuHone +3
We present new XMM-Newton observations extending the mosaic of the Perseus cluster out to the virial radius to the west. Previous studies with ROSAT have reported a large excess in…
The Mergers in Abell 2256: Displaced Gas and its Connection to the Radio-emitting Plasma
J. P. Breuer, N. Werner, F. Mernier +5
We present the results of deep Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray imaging and spatially-resolved spectroscopy of Abell 2256, a nearby (z=0.058) galaxy cluster experiencing multiple merge…
EAGLE and Illustris-TNG predictions for resolved eROSITA X-ray observations of the circumgalactic medium around normal galaxies
Benjamin D. Oppenheimer, Akos Bogdan, Robert A. Crain +8
We simulate stacked observations of nearby hot X-ray coronae associated with galaxies in the EAGLE and Illustris-TNG hydrodynamic simulations. A forward modeling pipeline is develo…
