From Mirrors to Windows: Lyman-Alpha Radiative Transfer in a Very Clumpy Medium
Max Gronke, Mark Dijkstra, Michael McCourt +1
Lyman-Alpha (Ly) is the strongest emission line in the Universe and is frequently used to detect and study the most distant galaxies. Because Lya is a resonant line, photons typ…
Magnetized Gas Clouds can Survive Acceleration by a Hot Wind
Michael McCourt, Ryan M. O'Leary, Ann-Marie Madigan +1
We present three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetized gas clouds accelerated by hot winds. We initialize gas clouds with tangled internal magnetic fields and s…
Bent Radio Jets Reveal a Stripped Interstellar Medium in NGC 1272
James McBride, Michael McCourt
We report the discovery of bent double jets in the elliptical galaxy NGC 1272, a member of the Perseus cluster. The jets have a radius of curvature of ~2 kpc, much smaller than the…
