Blazar Jets Perturbed by Magneto-Gravitational Stresses in Supermassive Binaries

A. Cavaliere, M. Tavani, V. Vittorini

We study particle acceleration and radiative processes in Blazar jets under recurring conditions set by gravitational perturbations in supermassive binary systems. We consider the…

Probing the evolution of galaxy clusters with the SZ Effect

A. Cavaliere, A. Lapi

In galaxy clusters the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect from the hot intracluster medium (ICM) provides a direct, self-contained measure of the pressure integrated over cross…

The Intracluster Plasma: a Universal Pressure Profile?

A. Lapi, A. Cavaliere, R. Fusco-Femiano

The pressure profiles of the Intracluster Plasma in galaxy clusters show a wide variance when observed in X rays at low redshifts z<0.2. We find the profiles to follow two main pat…

Flaring Patterns in Blazars

Alessandro Paggi, Alfonso Cavaliere, Valerio Vittorini +2

Blazars radiate from relativistic jets launched by a supermassive black hole along our line of sight; the subclass of FSRQs exhibits broad emission lines, a telltale sign of a gas-…

Supermodel Analysis of Galaxy Clusters

R. Fusco-Femiano, A. Cavaliere, A. Lapi

[abridged] We present the analysis of the X-ray brightness and temperature profiles for six clusters belonging to both the Cool Core and Non Cool Core classes, in terms of the Supe…

SSC radiation in BL Lac sources, the end of the tether

A. Paggi, F. Massaro, V. Vittorini +4

The synchrotron-self Compton (SSC) radiation process is widely held to provide a close representation of the double peaked spectral energy distributions from BL Lac Objects (BL Lac…
