Pulsating red giant and supergiant stars in the Local Group dwarf galaxy Andromeda I
We have conducted an optical long-term monitoring survey of the majority of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group, with the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), to identify the long period variable (LPV) stars. LPV stars vary on timescales of months to years, and reach the largest amplitudes of their brightness variations at optical wavelengths, due to the changing temperature. They trace stellar populati...
متن کاملDiscovery of a Giant Radio Halo in a New Planck Galaxy Cluster Plckg171.9-40.7
We report the discovery of a giant radio halo in a new, hot, X-ray luminous galaxy cluster recently found by Planck, PLCKG171.9-40.7. The radio halo was found using Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope observations at 235 MHz and 610 MHz, and in the 1.4 GHz data from a NRAO Very Large Array Sky Survey pointing that we have reanalyzed. The diffuse radio emission is coincident with the cluster X-ray e...
متن کاملSGRS J0515−8100: a Fat-Double giant radio galaxy
We present here the first detailed study of a giant radio galaxy of the FatDouble type. The lobes of the double radio galaxy SGRS J0515−8100 have transverse widths that are 1.3 times their extent from the center, their surface brightness is the lowest among known giant radio sources and the lobes have relatively steep radio spectra. We infer that these wide lobes were created as a result of a h...
متن کاملThe Mpc - scale radio source associated with the GPS galaxy B 1144 + 352
We present the results of new observations of the enigmatic radio source B1144+352 with the WSRT at 1.4 GHz. This source is hosted by an mr = 14.3 ± 0.1 galaxy at a redshift of z = 0.063 ± 0.002 and is one of the lowest redshift Gigahertz Peaked Spectrum (GPS) sources known. It has been known to show radio structure on pc-scale in the radio core and on20−60kpc-scale in two jet-like radio struct...
متن کاملA giant radio jet ejected by an ultramassive black hole in a single - lobed radio galaxy
We report the discovery of a very unusual, highly asymmetric radio galaxy whose radio jet, the largest yet detected, emits strongly polarized synchrotron radiation and can be traced all the way from the galactic nucleus to the hot spot located ∼ 440 kpc away. This jet emanates from an extremely massive black-hole (> 109M⊙) and forms a strikingly compact radio lobe. No radio lobe is detected on ...
