Particle Acceleration on Megaparsec Scales in a Merging Galaxy Cluster
R. J. van Weeren, H. J. A. Rottgering, M. Bruggen +1
Galaxy clusters form through a sequence of mergers of smaller galaxy clusters and groups. Models of diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) suggest that in shocks that occur during clus…
In-depth Chandra study of the AGN feedback in Virgo elliptical galaxy M84
A. Finoguenov, M. Ruszkowski, C. Jones +3
Using deep Chandra observations of M84 we study the energetics of the interaction between the black hole and the interstellar medium of this early-type galaxy. We perform a detaile…
Subgrid Modeling of AGN-Driven Turbulence in Galaxy Clusters
Evan Scannapieco, Marcus Brüggen
Hot, underdense bubbles powered by active galactic nuclei (AGN) are likely to play a key role in halting catastrophic cooling in the centers of cool-core galaxy clusters. We presen…
AGN heating and dissipative processes in galaxy clusters
M. Bruggen, M. Ruszkowski, E. Hallman
Recent X-ray observations reveal growing evidence for heating by active galactic nuclei (AGN) in clusters and groups of galaxies. AGN outflows play a crucial role in explaining the…
Cluster Heating by Viscous Dissipation of Sound Waves
Mateusz Ruszkowski, Marcus Bruggen, Mitchell C. Begelman
We simulate the effects of viscous dissipation of waves that are generated by AGN activity in clusters of galaxies. We demonstrate that the amount of viscous heating associated wit…
