Jet-driven bubbles in Fanaroff-Riley type I sources
Christopher M. Irwin, Xiaping Tang, Tsvi Piran +1
Observations of several Fanaroff-Riley (FR) type I sources reveal outflowing bipolar bubbles of hot gas surrounded by a weak forward shock. We consider the possibility that these b…
The deepest Chandra X-ray study of the plerionic supernova remnant G21.50.9
Benson Guest, Samar Safi-Harb, Xiaping Tang
G21.5-0.9 is a plerionic supernova remnant (SNR) used as a calibration target for the Chandra X-ray telescope. The first observations found an extended halo surrounding the bright…
Positron flux and gamma-ray emission from Geminga pulsar and pulsar wind nebula
Xiaping Tang, Tsvi Piran
Nearby pulsars have been suggested as sources of TeV Cosmic Ray (CR) excess on Earth. The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) detected extended TeV emi…
NuSTAR Detection of a Hard X-ray Source in the Supernova Remnant - Molecular Cloud Interaction Site of IC 443
Shuo Zhang, Xiaping Tang, Xiao Zhang +10
We report on a broadband study of a complex X-ray source (1SAX J0618.0+2227) associated with the interaction site of the supernova remnant (SNR) IC 443 and ambient molecular cloud…
Similarity of -ray spectrum in middle aged supernova remnants (SNRs) interacting with molecular clouds (MC): what can we learn?
Xiaping Tang
In this work, we compare the -ray spectra available in literature from 11 middle aged supernova remnants (SNRs) interacting with molecular clouds (MCs). It is found that 5 remna…
Sound wave generation by a spherically symmetric outburst and AGN feedback in galaxy clusters II: impact of thermal conduction
Xiaping Tang, Eugene Churazov
We analyze the impact of thermal conduction on the appearance of a shock-heated gas shell which is produced when a spherically symmetric outburst of a supermassive black hole infla…
