The Chandra XBootes Survey - III: Optical and Near-IR Counterparts
Kate Brand, Michael J. I. Brown, Arjun Dey +14
The XBootes Survey is a 5-ks Chandra survey of the Bootes Field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS). This survey is unique in that it is the largest (9.3 deg^2), contiguous…
The Hot Gas Environment of the Radio Galaxy 3C 388: Quenching the Accumulation of Cool Gas in a Cluster Core by a Nuclear Outburst
R. P. Kraft, J. Azcona, W. R. Forman +3
We present results from a 35 ks {\em Chandra}/ACIS-I observation of the hot ICM around the FR II radio galaxy 3C 388. 3C 388 resides in a cluster environment with an ICM temperatur…
Supermassive Black Holes in Elliptical Galaxies: Switching from Very Bright to Very Dim
E. Churazov, S. Sazonov, R. Sunyaev +3
Relativistic outflows (mainly observed in the radio) are a characteristic feature of both Galactic stellar mass black holes and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Simultaneous radio…
Chandra Observations of Gas Stripping in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 4552 in the Virgo Cluster
M. Machacek, C. Jones, W. R. Forman +1
We use a 54.4 ks Chandra observation to study ram-pressure stripping in NGC4552 (M89), an elliptical galaxy in the Virgo Cluster. Chandra images in the 0.5-2 keV band show a sharp…
The XBootes Chandra Survey Paper II: The X-ray Source Catalog
Almus Kenter, Stephen S. Murray, William R. Forman +14
We present results from a Chandra survey of the nine square degree Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS). This XBootes survey consists of 126 separate contiguous…
Chandra sample of nearby relaxed galaxy clusters: mass, gas fraction, and mass-temperature relation
A. Vikhlinin, A. Kravtsov, W. Forman +4
We present gas and total mass profiles for 13 low-redshift, relaxed clusters spanning a temperature range 0.7-9 keV, derived from all available Chandra data of sufficient quality.…
XBootes: An X-Ray Survey of the NDWFS Bootes Field - Paper I Overview and Initial Results
Stephen S. Murray, Almus Kenter, William R. Forman +14
We obtained a 5 ksec deep Chandra X-ray Observatory ACIS-I map of the 9.3 square degree Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey. Here we describe the data acquisition and a…
Tracing the Nuclear Accretion History of the Red Galaxy Population
Kate Brand, Arjun Dey, Michael J. I. Brown +14
We investigate the evolution of the hard X-ray luminosity of the red galaxy population using a large sample of 3316 red galaxies selected over a wide range in redshift (0.3<z<0.9)…
The merging cluster Abell 85 caught between meals by XMM-Newton
Florence Durret, Gastao B. Lima Neto, William Forman
Our XMM-Newton observations of Abell 85 confirm the extended 4 Mpc filament first detected with ROSAT, which has an X-ray temperature of about 2 keV and is probably made of groups…
