XRISM Reveals Low Nonthermal Pressure in the Core of the Hot, Relaxed Galaxy Cluster A2029

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present XRISM Resolve observations of the core of the hot, relaxed galaxy cluster Abell 2029 (A2029). We find that the line-of-sight bulk velocity of the intracluster medium (ICM) within the central 180 kpc is at rest with respect to the brightest ...

Evolution of vorticity and enstrophy in the intracluster medium

open access: yes, 2017
Turbulence generated by large-scale motions during structure formation affects the evolution of the thermal and non-thermal components of the intracluster medium.

Merger Shocks Enhance Quenching in Local Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report evidence for enhanced quenching in low-redshift galaxy clusters hosting radio relics. This effect is strongest for low-mass galaxies and is consistent with a rapid quenching of star formation.

A photometric search for transients in galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2008
We have begun a program to search for supernovae and other transients in the fields of galaxy clusters with the 2.3m Bok Telescope on Kitt Peak. We present our automated photometric methods for data reduction, efficiency characterization, and initial ...

Probing cluster environments of blazars through gamma-gamma absorption

open access: yes, 2014
Most blazars are known to be hosted in giant elliptic galaxies, but their cluster environments have not been thoroughly investigated. Cluster environments may contain radiation fields of low-energy photons created by nearby galaxies and/or stars in the ...

XRISM Observations of the Prototypical Cold Front in A3667

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the merging galaxy cluster A3667 with XRISM/Resolve. Two observations, targeting the cluster X-ray core and the prototypical cold front, were performed with exposures of 105 and 276 ks, respectively.

The Hidden Life of Stars: Embedded Beginnings to Asymptotic Giant Branch Endings in the PHANGS–JWST Sample. I. Catalog of Mid-infrared Sources

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a multiwavelength catalog of mid-infrared-selected compact sources in 19 nearby galaxies, combining JWST NIRCam/MIRI, Hubble Space Telescope UV–optical broadband, H α narrowband, and Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array CO observations.

The role of pressure anisotropy in the turbulent intracluster medium

open access: yes, 2012
In low-density plasma environments, such as the intracluster medium (ICM), the Larmour frequency is much larger than the ion-ion collision frequency. In such a case, the thermal pressure becomes anisotropic with respect to the magnetic field orientation ...

A Deep Redshift Survey of the Perseus Cluster (A426): Spatial Distribution and Kinematics of Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We study the global kinematics of the Perseus galaxy cluster (A426) at redshift z = 0.017 using a large sample of galaxies from our new MMT/Hectospec spectroscopic observation for this cluster.

Suzaku Observations of the Cold Front in A3667: A Nonequilibrium Ionization State of the Intracluster Medium

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a systematic study of the thermodynamic properties of the intracluster medium (ICM), including the plasma conditions in the ICM, in the merging galaxy cluster A3667 using Suzaku. We analyze the X-ray spectra of the ICM between the northwestern
