Star Formation, Nebulae, and Active Galactic Nuclei in CLASH Brightest Cluster Galaxies. I. Dependence on Core Entropy of Intracluster Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We set the stage for reassessing how star formation, emission-line nebulae, and active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) depend on the thermodynamics of the intracluster medium (ICM).

Selecting Clusters and Protoclusters via Stellar Mass Density. II. Application to HSC-SSP Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a selection of candidates of clusters and protoclusters of galaxies identified in the photometric data of the HSC-SSP Wide Public Data Release 3 (PDR3), spanning the redshift range 0.1 ≤ z ≤ 2. The selection method, detailed in Vicentin et al.,

Probing the effect of the protocluster environment on galaxy morphology at z = 2.23

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. As galaxies evolve in dense cluster and protocluster environments, they interact and quench their star formation. This gradually transforms the dominant galaxy population from star-forming galaxies to quiescent red galaxies.

Detection of Compton Scattering in the Jet of 3C 84

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
3C 84 is the brightest cluster galaxy in the Perseus Cluster. It is among the closest radio-loud active galaxies and among the very few that can be detected from low-frequency radio up to TeV γ -rays.

Combined LOFAR-uGMRT analysis of the diffuse radio emission in the massive clusters Abell 773 and Abell 1351

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Radio halos are diffuse megaparsec-scale nonthermal radio sources located at the center of galaxy clusters. They trace relativistic particles and magnetic fields in the intra-cluster medium.

JWST Photometry of Globular Cluster Populations in MACS0417.5−1154

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Deep JWST imaging of the massive galaxy cluster MACS0417.5−1154, at redshift z = 0.443, reveals a huge population of globular clusters (GCs) and ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs) primarily distributed around its single central giant brightest cluster galaxy ...

The Manhattan Suite: Accelerated Galaxy Evolution in the Early Universe

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Observational advances have allowed the detection of galaxies, protoclusters, and galaxy clusters at higher and higher redshifts, opening a new view into extreme galaxy evolution.

Multiwavelength Characterization of a Dynamically Relaxed Cool Core Galaxy Cluster at z = 1.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present imaging and spectroscopic analyses of Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of ACT-CL J0123.5−0428, one of the most massive, highest-redshift galaxy clusters detected within the survey fields of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope.

Searching for galaxy cluster-scale strong lenses from the DESI legacy imaging surveys

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
IntroductionGalaxy cluster-scale strong gravitational lensing systems are rare yet valuable tools for investigating dark matter and dark energy, as well as providing the opportunity to study the distant universe at flux levels and spatial resolutions ...

A Multiwavelength Approach to Constraining the Merger Properties of ACT-CL J0034.4+0225

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
ACT-CL J0034.4+0225 is a previously unrecognized merging galaxy cluster at z = 0.38588 ± 0.00068. Our primary evidence is provided by a 21 ks Chandra image that shows two surface brightness peaks separated by ∼49″ (259 kpc) surrounded by an extended ...
