7 Oct 2005 | Affiliation: | 1,3), Pablo F. Velázquez , Luc Binette and Alejandro C. Raga ( Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Instituto de Ciencias Nucleares UNAM, Instituto de Astronomia UNAM | Abstract: | We present hydrodynamical calculations carried out with the 3D yguazu-a code of a precessing jet model, which interacts with a plane parallel wind. This scenario describes an extragalactic jet, in which the jet source is in motion with respect to the surrounding intra-cluster medium. From the numerical results, synthetic emission maps and spectra in X-ray band were obtained. We compare these predictions with observations of the radio jets emanating from the radio-galaxy 4C 26.42 (in the Abell 1795 galaxy cluster). We find that the general morphology of the radio jets can be described by a point-symmetric precessing jet system interacting with a plane parallel wind (i.e., the intra-cluster medium flowing past the galaxy). We also find that our synthetic X-ray emission maps reproduce the observed large scale structures (with sizes of the order of tens of kpc). | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0510234 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
