AGN Fueling and Radio Jet Evolution in the Galaxy Group NGC 5044 revealed by VLBA HI Absorption and Proper-Motion Radio Observations

Francesco Ubertosi, Ewan O'Sullivan, Gerrit Schellenberger +8

The role of cooling gas in triggering active galactic nucleus (AGN) feedback in the centers of galaxy groups and clusters remains a key open question. NGC 5044, the X-ray brightest…

Mapping the Nearest Ancient Sloshing Cold Front in the Sky with XMM-Newton

Sheng-Chieh Lin, Yuanyuan Su, Iraj Vaezzadeh +8

The Virgo Cluster is the nearest cool core cluster that features two well-studied sloshing cold fronts at radii of kpc and kpc, respectively. In this…

Constraints on Non-Thermal Pressure at galaxy cluster outskirts from a Joint SPT and XMM-Newton Analysis

Arnab Sarkar, Michael McDonald, Lindsey Bleem +11

We present joint South Pole Telescope (SPT) and XMM-Newton observations of 8 massive galaxy clusters (0.8--1.710 M) spanning a redshift range of 0.16 to 0.…

PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 III: weak-lensing analysis and merging scenario reconstruction of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics

Eunmo Ahn, Hyejeon Cho, M. James Jee +7

The galaxy cluster PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 () is a post-merging system that exhibits symmetric double radio relics separated by ~2.7 Mpc. We present the first weak-lensing anal…

PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 II: radio analysis of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics

Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Andra Stroe, Ewan O'Sullivan +13

We report upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope and Karl J. Jansky Very Large Array radio observations of a low-mass merging galaxy cluster PSZ2 G181.06+48.47. This exceptional…

Revisiting the Group-Dominant Elliptical NGC 5044 in the Radio Band: Continuum Emission and Detection of HI Absorption

Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Tirna Deb, Konstantinos Kolokythas +9

We present new MeerKAT L-band (continuum and HI) and upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (300-850 MHz) observations of the archetypal cool-core group-dominant early-type galax…
