The first method called FLens integrates an inpainting concept to invert the shear field with possible gaps, and a multi-scale entropy denoising proce- dure to remove the noise contained in the final reconstruction, that arises mostly from the random intrinsic shape of the galaxies. The second and third methods are based on a model of the density field made of a multi-scale grid of radial basis functions. In one case, the model parameters are computed with a linear inversion involving a singular value decomposition. In the other case, the model parameters are estimated using a Bayesian MCMC optimization implemented in the lensing software Lenstool. Methods are compared on simulated data with varying galaxy density fields. We pay particular attention to the errors estimated with resampling. We find the multi-scale grid model optimized with MCMC to provide the best results, but at high computational cost, especially when considering resampling.

  • INVESTIGATING ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI with LOW FREQUENCY RADIO OBSERVATIONS By
    INVESTIGATING ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI WITH LOW FREQUENCY RADIO OBSERVATIONS by MATTHEW LAZELL A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Physics & Astronomy College of Engineering and Physical Sciences The University of Birmingham March 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract Low frequency radio astronomy allows us to look at some of the fainter and older synchrotron emission from the relativistic plasma associated with active galactic nuclei in galaxies and clusters. In this thesis, we use the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope to explore the impact that active galactic nuclei have on their surroundings. We present deep, high quality, 150–610 MHz radio observations for a sample of fifteen predominantly cool-core galaxy clusters. We in- vestigate a selection of these in detail, uncovering interesting radio features and using our multi-frequency data to derive various radio properties. For well-known clusters such as MS0735, our low noise images enable us to see in improved detail the radio lobes working against the intracluster medium, whilst deriving the energies and timescales of this event.

Not one star in the image can be seen by the naked eye. 4. Color of star reflects its surface temperature. Eagle Nebula. M 16 1. Messier 16 is a conspicuous region of active star formation, appearing in the constellation Serpens Cauda. This giant cloud of interstellar gas and dust is commonly known as the Eagle Nebula, and has already created a cluster of young stars. The nebula is also referred to the Star Queen Nebula and as IC 4703; the cluster is NGC 6611. With an overall visual magnitude of 6.4, and an apparent diameter of 7', the Eagle Nebula's star cluster is best seen with low power telescopes. The brightest star in the cluster has an apparent magnitude of +8.24, easily visible with good binoculars. A 4" scope reveals about 20 stars in an uneven background of fainter stars and nebulosity; three nebulous concentrations can be glimpsed under good conditions. Under very good conditions, suggestions of dark obscuring matter can be seen to the north of the cluster. In an 8" telescope at low power, M 16 is an impressive object. The nebula extends much farther out, to a diameter of over 30'. It is filled with dark regions and globules, including a peculiar dark column and a luminous rim around the cluster.

Walter19 Draft version July 17, 2014 ABSTRACT 0 We present FIR[50 − 300 µm]−CO luminosity relations (i.e., log LFIR = α log LCO + β) for the full CO rotational ladder from J = 1 − 0 up to J = 13 − 12 for a sample of 62 local (z ≤ 0:1) (Ultra) 11 Luminous Infrared Galaxies (LIRGs; LIR[8−1000 µm] > 10 L ) using data from Herschel SPIRE-FTS and ground-based telescopes. We extend our sample to high redshifts (z > 1) by including 35 (sub)- millimeter selected dusty star forming galaxies from the literature with robust CO observations, and sufficiently well-sampled FIR/sub-millimeter spectral energy distributions (SEDs) so that accurate FIR luminosities can be deduced. The addition of luminous starbursts at high redshifts enlarge the range of the FIR−CO luminosity relations towards the high-IR-luminosity end while also significantly increasing the small amount of mid-J/high-J CO line data (J = 5 − 4 and higher) that was available prior to Herschel. This new data-set (both in terms of IR luminosity and J-ladder) reveals linear FIR−CO luminosity relations (i.e., α ' 1) for J = 1 − 0 up to J = 5 − 4, with a nearly constant normalization (β ∼ 2).

  • Where Are the Missing Baryons in Clusters?
    1 Where Are the Missing Baryons in Clusters? Bilhuda Rasheed Adviser: Dr. Neta Bahcall Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts Department of Astrophysical Sciences Princeton University May 2010 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. I authorize Princeton University to lend this thesis to other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research. Bilhuda Rasheed I further authorize Princeton University to reproduce this thesis by photocopying or by other means, in total or in part, at the request of other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research. Bilhuda Rasheed Abstract We address previous claims that the baryon fraction in clusters is significantly below the cosmic value of the baryon fraction as determined from WMAP 7-year results. We use X-ray and SZ observations to determine the slope of the gas density profile to R200. This is shallower than the slope of total mass density (NFW) profile. We use the gas density slope to extrapolate the X-ray observations of gas fraction at R500 to the virial radius (R100). The gas fraction increases beyond R500 for all cluster masses. We add the stellar fraction as determined from COSMOS and 2MASS samples, with ICL contributing 10% to the stellar fraction. For massive clusters 14 (M500 ∼ 7 × 10 M ), the baryon fraction reaches the cosmic baryon fraction at Rvir± 20%. Poorer clusters and groups typically reach 75–85% of the cosmic baryon fraction at the virial radius. We compare these results with simulations which take into account gravitational shock-heating, star formation, heating from SNe and AGN, and energy transfer from dark matter.

  • X-Ray Calibration of SZ Scaling Relations with the ACCEPT
    Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 1–10 (2011) Printed 11 October 2018 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) X-ray calibration of SZ scaling relations with the ACCEPT catalogue of galaxy clusters observed by Chandra B. Comis1⋆, M. De Petris1, A. Conte1, L. Lamagna1 and S. De Gregori1 1Sapienza University of Rome, Department of Physics, P.le A. Moro, 2 Rome, Italy Accepted for publication in MNRAS ABSTRACT We explore the scaling relation between the flux of the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) ef- fect and the total mass of galaxy clusters using already reduced Chandra X-ray data present in the ACCEPT (Archive of Chandra Cluster Entropy Profile Tables) cata- logue. The analysis is conducted over a sample of 226 objects, examining the relatively small scale corresponding to a cluster overdensity equal to 2500 times the critical density of the background universe, at which the total masses have been calculated exploiting the hydrostatic equilibrium hypothesis. Core entropy (K0) is strongly corre- lated with the central cooling time, and is therefore used to identify cooling-core (CC) objects in our sample. Our results confirm the self-similarity of the scaling relation between the integrated Comptonization parameter (Y ) and the cluster mass, for both CC and NCC (non-cooling-core) clusters. The consistency of our calibration with re- cent ones has been checked, with further support for Y as a good mass proxy. We also investigate the robustness of the constant gas fraction assumption, for fixed overden- sity, and of the YX proxy (Kravtsov et al. 2007) considering CC and NCC clusters, again sorted on K0 from our sample.
