Dissecting ultra-diffuse galaxies in the field

A. Vanzanella, K. Malek, Junais +16

Context. Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the field are faint, diffuse systems that remain poorly represented in the literature due to the need for spectroscopic confirmation and t…

Identification of low redshift groups and clusters of galaxies in the X-CLASS survey and the X-ray luminosity-temperature relation

Q. Moysan, F. Sarron, N. Clerc +16

Properties of the hot intracluster and intragroup medium are mostly set by the underlying gravitational potential well, although complex astrophysical processes at play during thei…

The XXL Survey LIV. X-ray Luminosity Function and Luminosity-Mass Relation of Optically Selected Galaxy Groups

C. Wood, B. J. Maughan, J. P. Crossett +10

The overlap between the GAMA spectroscopic survey and the XXL X-ray survey was used to study the X-ray properties of optically-selected groups of galaxies. Forced X-ray aperture ph…

The active CGCG 077-102 NED02 galaxy within the Abell 2063 galaxy cluster

C. Adami, K. Parra Ramos, J. T. Harry +3

Within the framework of investigating the link between central super massive black holes in the core of galaxies and the galaxies themselves, we detected a variable X-ray source in…

A UNIONS view of the brightest central galaxies of candidate fossil groups

Aline Chu, F. Durret, A. Ellien +10

The formation process of fossil groups (FGs) is still under debate, and large samples of such objects are still missing. The aim of this paper is to increase the sample of known FG…

The Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit: a consolidated design for the system requirement review of the preliminary definition phase

Didier Barret, Vincent Albouys, Jan-Willem den Herder +296

The Athena X-ray Integral Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer, studied since 2015 for flying in the mid-30s on the Athena space X-ray Observatory, a versatile ob…
