A radio minihalo in the extreme cool-core galaxy cluster RXCJ1504.1-0248
S. Giacintucci, M. Markevitch, G. Brunetti +2
Aims. We report the discovery of a radio minihalo in RXCJ1504.1-0248, a massive galaxy cluster that has an extremely luminous cool core. To date, only 9 radio minihalos are known,…
Dying Radio Sources in Clusters
M. Murgia, P. Parma, K. -H. Mack +6
We present the study of five `dying' nearby radio galaxies belonging to the WENSS minisurvey and to the B2 bright catalogs: WNB1734+6407, WNB1829+6911, WNB1851+5707, B2 0120+33, an…
A shock front in the merging galaxy cluster Abell 754: X-ray and radio observations
Giulia Macario, Maxim Markevitch, Simona Giacintucci +3
We present new Chandra X-ray and Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) radio observations of the nearby merging galaxy cluster Abell 754. Our X-ray data confirm the presence of a…
AGN Driven Weather and Multiphase Gas in the Core of the NGC 5044 Galaxy Group
Laurence P. David, Ewan O'Sullivan, Christine Jones +7
A deep Chandra observation of the X-ray bright group, NGC 5044, shows that the central region of this group has been strongly perturbed by repeated AGN outbursts. These recent AGN…
A deep Chandra observation of the poor cluster AWM4 - II. The role of the radio jets in enriching the intra-cluster medium
Ewan O'Sullivan, Simona Giacintucci, Laurence P. David +2
We use a Chandra observation of the poor cluster AWM4 to map the temperature and abundance of the intra-cluster medium, so as to examine the influence of the central radio galaxy o…
On the connection between giant radio halos and cluster mergers
R. Cassano, S. Ettori, S. Giacintucci +4
The frequently observed association between giant radio halos and merging galaxy clusters has driven present theoretical models of non-thermal emission from galaxy clusters, which…
