A 70 kpc X-ray tail in the cluster A3627
M. Sun, C. Jones, W. Forman +3
We present the discovery of a 70 kpc X-ray tail behind the small late-type galaxy ESO137-001 in the nearby, hot (T=6.5 keV) merging cluster A3627, from both Chandra and XMM observa…
Luminosity segregation in three clusters of galaxies (A119, 2443, 2218)
M. B. Pracy, S. P. Driver, R. De Propris +2
We use deep wide-field V-band imaging obtained with the Wide Field Camera at the prime focus of the Issac Newton Telescope to study the spatial and luminosity distribution of galax…
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 powerful outburst in Hercules A
P. E. J. Nulsen, D. C. Hambrick, B. R. McNamara +4
The radio source Hercules A resides at the center of a cooling flow cluster of galaxies at redshift z = 0.154. A Chandra X-ray image reveals a shock front in the intracluster mediu…
