The Contribution from Scattered Light to Quasar Galaxy Hosts
We present models representing the scattering of quasar radiation off free electrons and dust grains in geometries that approximate the structure of quasar host galaxies. We show that, for reasonable assumptions, scattering alone can easily produce ratios of nuclear (point source) to extended fluxes comparable to those determined in studies of quasar hosts. This result suggests that scattered q...
متن کاملDetection of Iron Emission Line from the Galaxy Cluster Including the Distant Radio Galaxy 3C220.1
We detected an emission line feature at 4 keV in the X-ray spectrum of a sky region including the distant radio galaxy 3C220.1(z = 0.62) obtained with ASCA. The line energy is 6.1 – 7.0 keV (90% confidence) in the rest frame of 3C220.1. Within the present statistics, the observed spectra are consistent with two different models; a non-thermal model consisting of a power-law continuum plus a 6.4...
متن کاملA Chandra observation of the distant radio galaxy B 2 0902 + 343 : a powerful obscured active galaxy
We report a Chandra observation of the z = 3.395 radio galaxy B2 0902+343. The unresolved X-ray source is centred on the active nucleus. The spectrum is well fit by a flat power law of photon index of Γ ∼ 1.1 with intrinsic absorption of 8 × 10 22 cm −2 , and an intrinsic 2– 10 keV luminosity of 3.3 × 10 45 erg s −1. More complex models which allow for a steeper spectral index cause the column ...
متن کاملFluctuations in Scattered Light
Fluctuations in scattered light constitute some of the most familiar natural optical phenomena, including the twinkling of starlight, the glittering of sunlight on a rippled water surface and the shimmering of distant objects on a hot day [1]. These effects are geometrical in origin being a consequence of refraction by large-scale random variations in refractive index. Fluctuations of this kind...
متن کاملQuantifying Substructure Using Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing in Distant Clusters
We present high-resolution mass reconstructions for five massive cluster-lenses spanning a redshift range from z = 0.18–0.57 utilizing archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) data and applying galaxy-galaxy lensing techniques. These detailed mass models were obtained by combining constraints from the observed strong and weak lensing regimes. Quantifying the local weak distortions in the shear map...
