Measuring cavity powers of active galactic nuclei in clusters using a hybrid X-ray–radio method

Measuring cavity powers of active galactic nuclei in clusters using a hybrid X-ray–radio method

Measurements of the quantity of radio-mode feedback injected by an active galactic nucleus into the cluster environment have mostly relied on X-ray observations, which reveal cavities in the intracluster medium excavated by the radio lobes. However, the sensitivity required to accurately constrain the dimensions of these cavities has proven to …
