چکیده
Abstract We present MeerKAT L–band (886–1682 MHz) observations of the extended radio structure peculiar galaxy pair PKS 2130–538 known as ‘Dancing Ghosts’. The complex bending and possibly interacting jets lobes originate from two Active Galactic Nuclei hosts in Abell 3785 cluster, one which is brightest cluster galaxy. properties 2130–538— flux density, spectral index polarization — are typical for large, bent-tail galaxies. also investigate a number thin low surface brightness filaments originating lobes. Southeast Dancing Ghosts, we detect region emission that has no clear origin. While it could halo, possibility associated with hosts. find evidence interaction between

GMRT detection of HI 21 cm - line absorption from the peculiar galaxy in Abell 2125
Using the recently completed Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope, we have detected the HI 21 cm-line absorption from the peculiar galaxy C153 in the galaxy cluster Abell 2125. The HI absorption is at a redshift of 0.2533, with a peak optical depth of 0.36. The full width at half minimum of the absorption line is 100 km s. The estimated column density of atomic Hydrogen is 0.7×1022(Ts/100) cm . The ...
متن کاملThe dwarf galaxy population in Abell 2218
We present results from a deep photometric study of the rich galaxy cluster Abell 2218 (z = 0.18) based on archival HST WFPC2 F606W images. These have been used to derive the luminosity function to extremely faint limits (MF606W ≈ −13.2 mag, μ0 ≈ 24.7mag arcsec ) over a wide field of view (1.3 h Mpc). We find the faint-end slope of the luminosity function to vary with environment within the clu...
متن کاملThe Peculiar Galaxy NGC 7332
We present a detailed study of the edge-on S0 galaxy NGC 7332. We show that this object lies significantly below the fundamental plane of early-type galaxies. To understand this behaviour, we have carried out observations with the Integral Field Spectrograph SAURON, which give us a detailed view of the internal kinematics and gas and stars in this galaxy.
متن کاملPeculiar Velocities of Galaxy Clusters
We investigate the peculiar velocities predicted for galaxy clusters by theories in the cold dark matter family. A widely used hypothesis identifies rich clusters with high peaks of a suitably smoothed version of the linear density fluctuation field. Their peculiar velocities are then obtained by extrapolating the similarly smoothed linear peculiar velocities at the positions of these peaks. We...
متن کاملThe Galaxy Cluster Abell 3581 as seen
We present results from an analysis of a Chandra observation of the cluster of galaxies Abell 3581. We discover the presence of a point-source in the central dominant galaxy which is coincident with the core of the radio source PKS 1404-267. The emission from the intracluster medium is analysed, both as seen in projection on the sky, and after correcting for projection effects, to determine the...
