چکیده
We present results of Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the radio galaxy 3C 244.1. The broadband F702W (R) and F555W (V) images (WFPC2/PC) show an elliptical galaxy and gaseous filaments and blobs surrounding it. In the narrow-band ramp filter, dominated by [O III]λ5007, these filaments are bright and have the same morphology as the broad band images. To the south, the filaments have a cone-shaped structure and the radio jet is located at the center of this cone. To the north of the galaxy, the structure is found near the nucleus of the galaxy within its elliptical profile. From the photometry, the two brighter structures seem to be extended narrow line emission regions (ENLRs). The comparison with diagnostic line ratios shows that the observed emission is consistent with interactions between the expanding radio-jet and the local denser medium. Subject headings: AGN Radio Galaxies Jets Based on observations made with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc, under NASA contract NAS 5-26555 On assignment from the Space Science Department of ESA

Quintessence – the energy density of a slowly evolving scalar field – may constitute a dynamical form of the homogeneous dark energy in the universe. We review the basic idea and indicate observational tests which may distinguish quintessence from a cosmological constant.

Recent FUSE and STIS observations of O vi absorption at low redshift along the sightline to distant quasars have been interpreted as the signature of a warm-hot diffuse component of the intergalactic medium (IGM). In these proceedings we show that the predicted numbers of such absorbers in numerical simulations agree with the observed characteristics, lending support to this idea. We find that ...

We present the detection of a filament of Lyα emitting galaxies in front of the quasar Q1205-30 at z=3.04 based on deep narrow band imaging and follow-up spectroscopy obtained at the ESO NTT and VLT. We argue that Lyα selection of high redshift galaxies with relatively modest amounts of observing time allows the detection and redshift measurement of galaxies with sufficiently high space densiti...

New CO observations at the center of cooling flow in Perseus cluster [4] show a clear correlation of the molecular gas with the previously detected H-α filaments [1]. In this poster, we present high resolution multi-phase simulations of the Perseus Cluster, taking into account the AGN feedback in form of hot buoyant bubbles. These simulations show that significant amount of gas can cool far fro...
