Detection of non-thermal X-ray emission in the lobes and jets of Cygnus A
M. N. de Vries, M. W. Wise, D. Huppenkothen +7
We present a spectral analysis of the lobes and X-ray jets of Cygnus A, using more than 2 Ms of observations. The X-ray jets are misaligned with the radio jets a…
The Cocoon Shocks of Cygnus A: Pressures and Their Implications for the Jets and Lobes
Bradford Snios, Paul E. J. Nulsen, Michael W. Wise +18
We use 2.0 Msec of Chandra observations to investigate the cocoon shocks of Cygnus A and some implications for its lobes and jet. Measured shock Mach numbers vary in the range 1.18…
The X-ray Ribs Within the Cocoon Shock of Cygnus A
R. T. Duffy, D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw +15
We use new and archival Chandra observations of Cygnus A, totalling 1.9 Ms, to investigate the distribution and temperature structure of gas lying within the projected extent…
Buoyancy-driven inflow to a relic cold core: the gas belt in radio galaxy 3C 386
R. T. Duffy, D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw +1
We report measurements from an XMM-Newton observation of the low-excitation radio galaxy 3C 386. The study focusses on an X-ray-emitting gas belt, which lies between and orthogonal…
