Correlation Between the Total Gravitating Mass of Groups and Clusters and the Supermassive Black Hole Mass of Brightest Galaxies

Akos Bogdan, Lorenzo Lovisari, Marta Volonteri +1

Supermassive black holes (BHs) residing in the brightest cluster galaxies are over-massive relative to the stellar bulge mass or central stellar velocity dispersion of their host g…

RELICS: Strong Lens Models for Five Galaxy Clusters From the Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey

Catherine Cerny, Keren Sharon, Felipe Andrade-Santos +31

Strong gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters magnifies background galaxies, enhancing our ability to discover statistically significant samples of galaxies at z>6, in order to c…

The Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey (RELICS) and the Brightest High-z Galaxies

Brett Salmon, Dan Coe, Larry Bradley +31

Massive foreground galaxy clusters magnify and distort the light of objects behind them, permitting a view into both the extremely distant and intrinsically faint galaxy population…

X-Ray morphological analysis of the Planck ESZ clusters

Lorenzo Lovisari, William R. Forman, Christine Jones +7

X-ray observations show that galaxy clusters have a very large range of morphologies. The most disturbed systems which are good to study how clusters form and grow and to test phys…

XMM-Newton X-ray and HST weak gravitational lensing study of the extremely X-ray luminous galaxy cluster ClJ120958.9+495352 ()

Sophia Thölken, Tim Schrabback, Thomas H. Reiprich +6

Observations of relaxed, massive and distant clusters can provide important tests of standard cosmological models e.g. using the gas mass fraction. We study the very luminous, high…

CHEERS: The chemical evolution RGS sample

J. de Plaa, J. S. Kaastra, N. Werner +17

The chemical yields of supernovae and the metal enrichment of the hot intra-cluster medium (ICM) are not well understood. This paper introduces the CHEmical Enrichment RGS Sample (…

iPTF15eqv: Multi-wavelength Exposé of a Peculiar Calcium-rich Transient

D. Milisavljevic, D. Patnaude, J. Raymond +15

The progenitor systems of the class of "Ca-rich transients" is a key open issue in time domain astrophysics. These intriguing objects exhibit unusually strong calcium line emission…

The fraction of cool-core clusters in X-ray vs. SZ samples using Chandra observations

Felipe Andrade-Santos, Christine Jones, William R. Forman +21

We derive and compare the fractions of cool-core clusters in the {\em Planck} Early Sunyaev-Zel'dovich sample of 164 clusters with and in a flux-limited X-ray sample…

The Double Galaxy Cluster Abell 2465 III. X-ray and Weak-lensing Observations

Gary A. Wegner, Keiichi Umetsu, Sandor M. Molnar +7

We report Chandra X-ray observations and optical weak-lensing measurements from Subaru/Suprime-Cam images of the double galaxy cluster Abell 2465 (z=0.245). The X-ray brightness da…
