X-rays associated with the jet-cloud interacting radio galaxy 3C 277.3 (Coma A): implications for energy deposition

D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw, A. J. Young

We report the discovery with Chandra of X-ray-emitting gas associated with the jet-cloud interaction in the radio galaxy 3C 277.3 (Coma A), a source that falls in the most importan…

The Hot and Energetic Universe: AGN feedback in galaxy clusters and groups

J. H. Croston, J. S. Sanders, S. Heinz +25

Mechanical feedback via Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) jets in the centres of galaxy groups and clusters is a crucial ingredient in current models of galaxy formation and cluster evo…

A Multi-Wavelength Study of the Jet, Lobes and Core of the Quasar PKS 2101-490

L. E. H. Godfrey, G. V. Bicknell, J. E. J. Lovell +9

We present a detailed study of the X-ray, optical and radio emission from the jet, lobes and core of the quasar PKS 2101-490 as revealed by new Chandra, HST and ATCA images. We ext…

High-energy particle acceleration at the radio-lobe shock of Centaurus A

J. H. Croston, R. P. Kraft, M. J. Hardcastle +19

We present new results on the shock around the southwest radio lobe of Centaurus A using data from the Chandra Very Large Programme observations. The X-ray spectrum of the emission…

Where Centaurus A gets its X-ray knottiness

D. M. Worrall, M. Birkinshaw, R. P. Kraft +15

We report an X-ray spectral study of the transverse structure of the Centaurus A jet using new data from the Chandra Cen A Very Large Project. We find that the spectrum steepens wi…

New results on particle acceleration in the Centaurus A jet and counterjet from a deep Chandra observation

M. J. Hardcastle, R. P. Kraft, G. R. Sivakoff +16

We present new deep Chandra observations of the Centaurus A jet, with a combined on-source exposure time of 719 ks. These data allow detailed X-ray spectral measurements to be made…
