Chandra, XMM-Newton and HST observations of a transient in M31 with a possible asymmetric, precessing disk

R. Barnard, M. R. Garcia, S. S. Murray

The transient X-ray source CXOM31 004205.77+411330.43 exhibited several outbursts during our long-term monitoring campaign of ~monthly observations of the M31 center with Chandra.…

SPT-CLJ2040-4451: An SZ-Selected Galaxy Cluster at z = 1.478 With Significant Ongoing Star Formation

M. B. Bayliss, M. L. N. Ashby, J. Ruel +76

SPT-CLJ2040-4451 -- spectroscopically confirmed at z = 1.478 -- is the highest redshift galaxy cluster yet discovered via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect. SPT-CLJ2040-4451 was a cand…

Irregular sloshing cold fronts in the nearby merging groups NGC 7618 and UGC 12491: evidence for Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities

E. Roediger, R. P. Kraft, M. E. Machacek +4

We present results from two \sim30 ks Chandra observations of the hot atmospheres of the merging galaxy groups centered around NGC 7618 and UGC 12491. Our images show the presence…

AGES: The AGN and Galaxy Evolution Survey

C. S. Kochanek, D. J. Eisenstein, R. J. Cool +12

The AGN and Galaxy Evolution Survey (AGES) is a redshift survey covering, in its standard fields, 7.7 square degrees of the Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS).…

Lack of cooling flow clusters at z>0.5

A. Vikhlinin, R. Burenin, W. R. Forman +4

The goal of this work is to study the incidence rate of "cooling flows" in the high redshift clusters using Chandra observations of z>0.5 objects from a new large, X-ray selected c…

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…
