Scattering of emission lines in galaxy cluster cores: measuring electron temperature

S. Khedekar, E. Churazov, S. Sazonov +2

The central galaxies of some clusters can be strong emitters in the Ly and H lines. This emission may arise either from the cool/warm gas located in the cool core of the clus…

Explaining two circumnuclear star forming rings in NGC5248

T. P. R. van der Laan, E. Schinnerer, E. Emsellem +7

The distribution of gas in the central kiloparsec of a galaxy has a dynamically rapid evolution. Nonaxisymmetries in the gravitational potential of the galactic disk, such as a lar…
