Cosmic Chemical Evolution with an Early Population of Intermediate Mass Stars
Elisabeth Vangioni, Joseph Silk, Keith A. Olive +1
We explore the consequences of an early population of intermediate mass stars in the 2 - 8 M\odot range on cosmic chemical evolution. We discuss the implications of this population…
Comptonization of the cosmic microwave background by high energy particles residing in AGN cocoons
D. A. Prokhorov, V. Antonuccio-Delogu, J. Silk
X-ray cavities and extended radio sources (`cocoons') surrounding active galactic nuclei (AGN) have been detected by the Chandra X-ray mission and radio interferometers. A joint an…
A redshift survey towards the CMB Cold Spot
M. N. Bremer, J. Silk, L. J. M. Davies +1
We have carried out a redshift survey using the VIMOS spectrograph on the VLT towards the Cosmic Microwave Background cold spot. A possible cause of the cold spot is the Integrated…
AGN activity: Self-regulation from backflow
V. Antonuccio-Delogu, J. Silk
We study the internal circulation within the cocoon carved out by the relativistic jet emanating from an AGN within the ISM of its host galaxy. Firstly, we develop a model for the…
