Constraints on thermal conductivity in the merging cluster Abell 2146 (2023)
Journal Article
Richard-Laferrière, A., Russell, H. R., Fabian, A. C., Chadayammuri, U., Reynolds, C. S., Canning, R. E. A., …Sanders, J. S. (2023). Constraints on thermal conductivity in the merging cluster Abell 2146. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 526(4), 6205–6213

The cluster of galaxies Abell 2146 is undergoing a major merger and is an ideal cluster to study ICM physics, as it has a simple geometry with the merger axis in the plane of the sky, its distance allows us to resolve features across the relevant sca...

Overview of the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Reynolds, C. S., Kara, E. A., Mushotzky, R. F., Ptak, A., Koss, M. J., Williams, B. J., …Zhang, W. W. (2023). Overview of the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS). Proceedings of SPIE, 12678, https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2677468

The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) is a Probe-class concept that will build on the legacy of the Chandra X-ray Observatory by providing low-background, arcsecond-resolution imaging in the 0.3-10 keV band across a 450 arcminute 2 field of vie...

AGN feeding and feedback in M84: from kiloparsec scales to the Bondi radius (2023)
Journal Article
Bambic, C. J., Russell, H. R., Reynolds, C. S., Fabian, A. C., McNamara, B. R., & Nulsen, P. E. J. (2023). AGN feeding and feedback in M84: from kiloparsec scales to the Bondi radius. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 522(3), 4374-4391. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad824

We present the deepest Chandra observation to date of the galaxy M84 in the Virgo Cluster, with over 840 ks of data provided by legacy observations and a recent 730 ks campaign. The increased signal-to-noise ratio allows us to study the origins of th... Read More about AGN feeding and feedback in M84: from kiloparsec scales to the Bondi radius.
