Constraining cold accretion onto supermassive black holes: molecular gas in the cores of eight brightest cluster galaxies revealed by joint CO and CN absorption

Tom Rose, A. C. Edge, F. Combes +18

To advance our understanding of the fuelling and feedback processes which power the Universe's most massive black holes, we require a significant increase in our knowledge of the m…

Deep and narrow CO absorption revealing molecular clouds in the Hydra-A brightest cluster galaxy

Tom Rose, A. C. Edge, F. Combes +20

Active galactic nuclei play a crucial role in the accretion and ejection of gas in galaxies. Although their outflows are well studied, finding direct evidence of accretion has prov…

Testing for Shock-Heated X-ray Gas Around Compact Steep Spectrum Radio Galaxies

C. P. O'Dea, D. M. Worrall, G. R. Tremblay +7

We present Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray, VLA radio, and optical observations of three candidate Compact Steep Spectrum (CSS) radio galaxies. CSS sources are galactic scale and are…

Constraining star formation rates in cool-core brightest cluster galaxies

Rupal Mittal, John T. Whelan, Francoise Combes

We used broad-band imaging data for 10 cool-core brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) and conducted a Bayesian analysis using stellar population synthesis to determine the likely prop…
