Shock heating by nearby AGN
J. H. Croston, R. P. Kraft, M. J. Hardcastle
Shock heating by radio jets is potentially an important process in a range of environments, as it will increase the entropy of the heated gas. Although this process is expected to…
X-ray Constraints on Galaxy-Gas-Jet Interactions in the Dumbbell Galaxies NGC4782 and NGC4783 in the LGG316 Group
M. E. Machacek, R. P. Kraft, C. Jones +2
We present results from a 49.3 ks Chandra X-ray observation of the strongly interacting dumbbell galaxies NGC4782(3C278) and NGC4783 that constrain the kinematics of the interactio…
The Chandra, HST, and VLA View of the Circumnuclear Extended Emission in the Narrow Emission Line Galaxy NGC 2110
Daniel A. Evans, Julia C. Lee, Maria Kamenetska +4
We present results from new Chandra and archival HST and VLA imaging observations of the circumnuclear extended emission in the nearby Type 2 Seyfert galaxy NGC 2110. We find resol…
Filaments, Bubbles, and Weak Shocks in the Gaseous Atmosphere of M87
W. Forman, E. Churazov, C. Jones +10
We present the first results from a 500 ksec Chandra ACIS-I observation of M87. At soft energies (0.5-1.0 keV), we detect filamentary structures associated with the eastern and sou…
The infrared jet in Centaurus A: multiwavelength constraints on emission mechanisms and particle acceleration
M. J. Hardcastle, R. P. Kraft, D. M. Worrall
We report on Spitzer and Gemini observations of the jet of Centaurus A in the infrared, which we combine with radio, ultraviolet and X-ray data. Spitzer detects jet emission from a…
The complex X-ray morphology of NGC 7618: A major group-group merger in the local Universe?
R. P. Kraft, C. Jones, P. E. J. Nulsen +1
We present results from a short {\em Chandra}/ACIS-S observation of NGC 7618, the dominant central galaxy of a nearby (=0.017309, d=74.1 Mpc) group. We detect a sharp surface br…
