Galaxy activity in merging binary galaxy clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
We present the results of a study of galaxy activity in two merging binary clusters (A168 and A1750) using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data supplemented with the data in the literature. We have investigated the merger histories of A168 and A1750 by combining the results from a two-body dynamical model and X-ray data.

Chemical abundances in active galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has proved to be a powerful resource for understanding the physical properties and chemical composition of star-forming galaxies in the local Universe. The SDSS population of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) remains as of yet less explored in this capacity.

Mechanical heating by active galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2005
Jets and winds are significant channels for energy loss from accreting black holes. These outflows mechanically heat their surroundings, through shocks as well as gentler forms of heating. We discuss recent efforts to understand the nature and distribution of mechanical heating by central active galactic nuclei (AGN) in clusters of ...

Active galaxies and radiative heating

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2005
There is abundant evidence that heating processes in the central regions of elliptical galaxies have both prevented large–scale cooling flows and assisted in the expulsion of metal rich gas. We now know that each such spheroidal system harbours in its core a massive black hole weighing ca.

Active galaxies and cluster gas [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2005
Two lines of evidence indicate that active galaxies, principally radio galaxies, have heated the diffuse hot gas in clusters. The first is the general need for additional heating to explain the steepness of the X–ray luminosity–temperature relation in clusters, the second is to solve the cooling–flow problem in cluster cores.

Merging Galaxies with Active Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
We are investigating a sample of nearby interacting and merging galaxies showing starburst properties and/or nonthermal nuclear activity (e.g. Mrk 231, Mrk 739, Mrk 1027, NGC 2992, Arp 92).
