Origins of molecular clouds in early-type galaxies

Iu. V. Babyk, B. R. McNamara, P. D. Tamhane +3

We analyze observations of the hot atmospheres of 40 early spiral and elliptical galaxies. Using new temperature, density, cooling time, and mass profiles, we explore rel…

The imprints of AGN feedback within a supermassive black hole's sphere of influence

H. R. Russell, A. C. Fabian, B. R. McNamara +4

We present a new 300 ks Chandra observation of M87 that limits pileup to only a few per cent of photon events and maps the hot gas properties closer to the nucleus than has previou…

Discovery of a diffuse optical line emitting halo in the core of the Centaurus cluster of galaxies: Line emission outside the protection of the filaments

S. L. Hamer, A. C. Fabian, H. R. Russell +6

We present the discovery of diffuse optical line emission in the Centaurus cluster seen with the MUSE IFU. The unparalleled sensitivity of MUSE allows us to detect the faint emissi…

X-ray scaling relations of early-type galaxies

Iu. V. Babyk, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +5

X-ray luminosity, temperature, gas mass, total mass, and their scaling relations are derived for 94 early-type galaxies using archival X-ray Observatory observations. Con…

A Universal Entropy Profile for the Hot Atmospheres of Galaxies and Clusters within

Iu. V. Babyk, B. R. McNamara, P. E. J. Nulsen +4

We present atmospheric gas entropy profiles for 40 early type galaxies and 110 clusters spanning several decades of halo mass, atmospheric gas mass, radio jet power, and galaxy typ…
