    Completing the 3CR Chandra Snapshot Survey: Extragalactic Radio Sources at High Redshift
    (2020) Jimenez-Gallardo, A.; Massaro, F.; Prieto, M. A.; Missaglia, V.; Stuardi, C.; Paggi, A.; Ricci, F.; Kraft, R. P.; Liuzzo, E.; Tremblay, G. R.; Baum, S. A.; O'Dea, C. P.; Wilkes, B. J.; Kuraszkiewicz, J.; Forman, W. R.; Harris, D. E.
    We present the analysis of nine radio sources belonging to the Third Cambridge Revised catalog (3CR) observed with Chandra during Cycle 20 in the redshift range between 1.5 and 2.5. This study completes the 3CR Chandra Snapshot Survey thus guaranteeing the X-ray coverage of all 3CR sources identified to date. This sample lists two compact steep spectrum sources, four radio galaxies, and three quasars. We detected X-ray emission from all nuclei, with the only exception of 3C 326.1 and 3C 454.1 and from radio lobes in six out of nine sources at a level of confidence larger than similar to 5 sigma. We measured X-ray fluxes and luminosities for all nuclei and lobes in the soft (0.5-1 keV), medium (1-2 keV), and hard (2-7 keV) X-ray bands. Since the discovered X-ray extended emission is spatially coincident with the radio structure in all cases, its origin could be due to inverse Compton (IC) scattering of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) occurring in radio lobes.

    Extended X-Ray Emission around FR II Radio Galaxies: Hot Spots, Lobes, and Galaxy Clusters
    (2021) Jimenez-Gallardo, A.; Massaro, F.; Paggi, A.; D'Abrusco, R.; Prieto, M. A.; Pena-Herazo, H. A.; Berta, V; Ricci, F.; Stuardi, C.; Wilkes, B. J.; O'Dea, C. P.; Baum, S. A.; Kraft, R. P.; Forman, W. R.; Jones, C.; Mingo, B.; Liuzzo, E.; Balmaverde, B.; Capetti, A.; Missaglia, V; Hardcastle, M. J.; Baldi, R. D.; Morabito, L. K.
    We present a systematic analysis of the extended X-ray emission discovered around 35 FR II radio galaxies from the revised Third Cambridge Catalog (3CR) Chandra Snapshot Survey with redshifts between 0.05 and 0.9. We aimed to (i) test for the presence of extended X-ray emission around FR II radio galaxies, (ii) investigate whether the extended emission origin is due to inverse Compton (IC) scattering of seed photons arising from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) or thermal emission from an intracluster medium (ICM), and (iii) test the impact of this extended emission on hot-spot detection. We investigated the nature of the extended X-ray emission by studying its morphology and compared our results with low-frequency radio observations (i.e., similar to 150 MHz) in the TGSS and LOFAR archives, as well as with optical images from Pan-STARRS. In addition, we optimized a search for X-ray counterparts of hot spots in 3CR FR II radio galaxies. We found statistically significant extended emission (>3 sigma confidence level) along the radio axis of similar to 90% and in the perpendicular direction of similar to 60% of the galaxies in our sample. We confirmed the detection of seven hot spots in the 0.5-3 keV energy range. In the cases where the emission in the direction perpendicular to the radio axis is comparable to that along the radio axis, we suggest that the underlying radiative process is thermal emission from the ICM. Otherwise, the dominant radiative process is likely nonthermal IC/CMB emission from lobes. We found that nonthermal IC/CMB is the dominant process in similar to 70% of the sources in our sample, while thermal emission from the ICM dominates in similar to 15% of them.

    Raining in MKW 3 s: A Chandra-MUSE Analysis of X-Ray Cold Filaments around 3CR 318.1
    (2021) Jimenez-Gallardo, A.; Massaro, F.; Balmaverde, B.; Paggi, A.; Capetti, A.; Forman, W. R.; Kraft, R. P.; Baldi, R. D.; Mahatma, V. H.; Mazzucchelli, C.; Missaglia, V.; Ricci, F.; Venturi, G.; Baum, S. A.; Liuzzo, E.; O'Dea, C. P.; Prieto, M. A.; Rottgering, H. J. A.; Sani, E.; Sparks, W. B.; Tremblay, G. R.; van Weeren, R. J.; Wilkes, B. J.; Harwood, J. J.; Mazzotta, P.; Kuraszkiewicz, J.
    We present the analysis of X-ray and optical observations of gas filaments observed in the radio source 3CR 318.1, associated with NGC 5920, the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) of MKW 3 s, a nearby cool core galaxy cluster. This work is one of the first X-ray and optical analyses of filaments in cool core clusters carried out using MUSE observations. We aim at identifying the main excitation processes responsible for the emission arising from these filaments. We complemented the optical VLT/MUSE observations, tracing the colder gas phase, with X-ray Chandra observations of the hotter highly ionized gas phase. Using the MUSE observations, we studied the emission line intensity ratios along the filaments to constrain the physical processes driving the excitation, and, using the Chandra observations, we carried out a spectral analysis of the gas along these filaments. We found a spatial association between the X-ray and optical morphology of these filaments, which are colder and have lower metal abundance than the surrounding intracluster medium (ICM), as already seen in other BCGs. Comparing with previous results from the literature for other BCGs, we propose that the excitation process that is most likely responsible for these filaments emission is a combination of star formation and shocks, with a likely contribution from self-ionizing, cooling ICM. Additionally, we conclude that the filaments most likely originated from AGN-driven outflows in the direction of the radio jet.

    The Cavity of 3CR 196.1: Hα Emission Spatially Associated with an X-Ray Cavity
    (2022) Jimenez-Gallardo, A.; Sani, E.; Ricci, F.; Mazzucchelli, C.; Balmaverde, B.; Massaro, F.; Capetti, A.; Forman, W. R.; Kraft, R. P.; Venturi, G.; Gendron-Marsolais, M.; Prieto, M. A.; Marconi, A.; Pena-Herazo, H. A.; Baum, S. A.; O'Dea, C. P.; Lovisari, L.; Gilli, R.; Torresi, E.; Paggi, A.; Missaglia, V.; Tremblay, G. R.; Wilkes, B. J.
    We present a multifrequency analysis of the radio galaxy 3CR 196.1 (z=0.198), associated with the brightest galaxy of the cool-core cluster CIZAJ0815.4-0303. This nearby radio galaxy shows a hybrid radio morphology and an X-ray cavity, all signatures of a turbulent past activity, potentially due to merger events and active galactic nuclei (AGN) outbursts. We present results of the comparison between Chandra and Very Large Telescope Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer data for the inner region of the galaxy cluster, on a scale of tens of kpc. We discovered H alpha + [N ii]lambda 6584 emission spatially associated with the X-ray cavity (at similar to 10 kpc from the galaxy nucleus) instead of with its rim. This result differs from previous discoveries of ionized gas surrounding X-ray cavities in other radio galaxies harbored in galaxy clusters and could represent the first reported case of ionized gas filling an X-ray cavity, either due to different AGN outbursts or to the cooling of warm (10(4) < T <= 10(7) K) AGN outflows. We also found that the H alpha, [N ii]lambda lambda 6548, 6584, and [S ii]lambda lambda 6718, 6733 emission lines show an additional redward component, at similar to 1000 km s(-1) from rest frame, with no detection in H beta or [O iii]lambda lambda 4960, 5008. We believe the most likely explanation for this redward component is the presence of a background gas cloud as there appears to be a discrete difference of velocities between this component and the rest frame.

    The nuclear stellar disc of the Milky Way: A dynamically cool and metal-rich component possibly formed from the central molecular zone
    (2021) Schultheis, M.; Fritz, T. K.; Nandakumar, G.; Rojas-Arriagada, A.; Nogueras-Lara, F.; Feldmeier-Krause, A.; Gerhard, O.; Neumayer, N.; Patrick, L. R.; Prieto, M. A.; Schodel, R.; Mastrobuono-Battisti, A.; Sormani, M. C.
    Context. The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) is, together with the nuclear star cluster (NSC) and the central massive black hole, one of the main components in the central parts of our Milky Way. However, until recently, only a few studies of the stellar content of the NSD have been obtained owing to extreme extinction and stellar crowding.Aims. We study the kinematics and global metallicities of the NSD based on the observations of K/M giant stars via a dedicated KMOS (VLT, ESO) spectroscopic survey.Methods. We traced radial velocities and metallicities, which were derived based on spectral indices (Na I and CO) along the NSD, and compared those with a Galactic bulge sample of APOGEE (DR16) and data from the NSC.Results. We find that the metallicity distribution function and the fraction of metal-rich and metal-poor stars in the NSD are different from the corresponding distributions and ratios of the NSC and the Galactic bulge. By tracing the velocity dispersion as a function of metallicity, we clearly see that the NSD is kinematically cool and that the velocity dispersion decreases with increasing metallicity contrary to the inner bulge sample of APOGEE (|b|< 4 degrees). Using molecular gas tracers (H2CO, CO(4-3)) of the central molecular zone (CMZ), we find an astonishing agreement between the gas rotation and the rotation of the metal-rich population. This agreement indicates that the metal-rich stars could have formed from gas in the CMZ. On the other hand, the metal-poor stars show a much slower rotation profile with signs of counter-rotation, thereby indicating that these stars have a different origin.Conclusions. Coupling kinematics with global metallicities, our results demonstrate that the NSD is chemically and kinematically distinct with respect to the inner bulge, which indicates a different formation scenario.
