Journal ArticleDOI
A Systematic Study of Radio-induced X-Ray Cavities in Clusters, Groups, and Galaxies
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of 16 galaxy clusters, one group, and one galaxy drawn from the Chandra Data Archive is presented, where the authors evaluate the hypothesis that cooling in hot gas can be quenched by energy injected into the surrounding gas by the rising bubbles.
Journal ArticleDOI
The feedback-regulated growth of black holes and bulges through gas accretion and starbursts in cluster central dominant galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the relationship between cooling and star formation and found that the star formation rates are approaching or are comparable to X-ray and far-UV limits on the rates of gas condensation onto the central galaxy.

TL;DR: The discovery of giant cavities and shock fronts in a distant (z = 0.22) cluster caused by an interaction between a radio source and the hot gas surrounding it is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Regulation of Cooling and Star Formation in Luminous Galaxies by Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback and the Cooling-Time/Entropy Threshold for the Onset of Star Formation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the connection between star formation, the intracluster medium (ICM), and the central active galactic nucleus (AGN) in 46 cluster central dominant galaxies (CDGs).
