Energetic Impact of Jet Inflated Cocoons in Relaxed Galaxy Clusters
John C. Vernaleo, Christopher S. Reynolds
Jets from active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the cores of galaxy clusters have the potential to be a major contributor to the energy budget of the intracluster medium (ICM). To study…
AGN Heating of Cooling Flow Clusters: Problems with 3D Hydrodynamic Models
John C. Vernaleo, Christopher S. Reynolds
We have performed a set of high resolution, three dimensional simulations of a jetted AGN embedded in a relaxed cooling cluster. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first s…
AGN Feedback and Cooling Flows: Problems with Simple Hydrodynamical Models
John C. Vernaleo, Christopher S. Reynolds
In recent years it has become increasingly clear that Active Galactic Nuclei, and radio-galaxies in particular, have an impact on large scale structure and galaxy formation. In pri…
Buoyant radio-lobes in a viscous intracluster medium
Christopher S. Reynolds, Barry McKernan, Andrew C. Fabian +2
(Abridged) Ideal hydrodynamic models of the intracluster medium (ICM) in the core regions of galaxy clusters fail to explain both the observed temperature structure of this gas, an…
