The Fermi Bubbles: Supersonic AGN Jets with Anisotropic Cosmic Ray Diffusion
H. -Y. K. Yang, M. Ruszkowski, P. M. Ricker +2
The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope reveals two large bubbles in the Galaxy, which extend nearly symmetrically ~50 degrees above and below the Galactic center (GC). Using three-dim…

Cold Fronts and Gas Sloshing in Galaxy Clusters with Anisotropic Thermal Conduction
J. A. ZuHone, M. Markevitch, M. Ruszkowski +1
(Abridged) Cold fronts in cluster cool cores should be erased on short timescales by thermal conduction, unless protected by magnetic fields that are "draped" parallel to the front…

Cosmological MHD simulations of cluster formation with anisotropic thermal conduction
M. Ruszkowski, D. Lee, M. Bruggen +2
(abridged) The ICM has been suggested to be buoyantly unstable in the presence of magnetic field and anisotropic thermal conduction. We perform first cosmological simulations of ga…
