1 AGN Outflows in Dynamic ICMs: Winds and Twists Tom Jones University of Minnesota Pete Mendygral (UMN, Cray Computer) David Porter (UMN) Klaus Dolag (MPA, U Munich) 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 1

2 Outline AGN outflows (radio jets) are major dynamical & thermodynamical ICM components AGN/ICM interactions may provide insights to AGN & ICM physics Is binarity in radio mode AGNs useful as a tool in these investigations? 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 2

3 Dave DeYoung was keenly interested in AGN/ICM interactions (from 2007 Anchorage Workshop) 3D Buoyant Bubble AGN-made ICM cavity: Role of the ICM magnetic field g hydro t = 75 Myr β 0 = 3000 t = 75 Myr β 0 = 120 t = 150 Myr Bubble mass fraction r 0 = 2 kpc x 0 = 15 kpc ρ bub /ρ icm = x34x34 kpc x=0.13 kpc DeYoung, O Neill & Jones May, 2007 Extragalactic Jets 3

5 Importance: Energy Input to ICM Can Be Large Rafferty + 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 5

6 Importance: Dynamics Reflect ICM Motions/Structure NGC kpc O Dea & Owen λ21cm U gal ~ 2000 km/s τ AGN > 2x10 8 yr 3C 84 ~540 kpc Sijbring & debruyn λ49cm 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 6

7 Some Known to be Binary (Many Might Be) Binary Example: 3C 75 A400 NGC 1128 ~ 8kpc separation Red (visible) Blue (radio) 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 7

8 Binary Example: AS345 ~ 40 kpc separation Grey (visible) Contours (radio) 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 8

9 Binary Example: FIRST J Visible + radio contours radio ~15 kpc separation 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 9

10 Given the commonality of AGNs in ICMs The Challenge: Decipher complex morphological (& other) clues to establish useful dynamical diagnostics: E.G., ICM flow properties ICM magnetic field properties Jet physical properties Define key Jet/ICM interaction parameters We ve mostly explored through simulations 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 10

11 Previous Generation Jet Simulations in Static ICMs (3D MHD) e.g., O Neill, Mendygral & Jones 2009 Bipolar, collimated Mach 30 (internal) jet outflows L jet = 1.2x10 46 erg/s (combined jets at full power) Steady or intermittent (50%, 26 Myr cycle) r jet = 3 kpc ρ jet /ρ 0 = 0.01 Toroidal jet B field at source (β = P g /P M ~ 100; B j ~ 10 µg) Passive `CR electrons, shock injection & DSA Adiabatic & radiative (synch, IC) losses AGN at center of ~ 4x10 14 M o cluster (NFW potential) Static ICM, kt ICM ~3keV (~ Perseus) Double β profile with random density fluctuations Tangled ICM magnetic field <β plasma >~ 100 (range ~ 30:1000) (<B core > ~ 7µG) No radiative cooling of ICM 11/29/2012 Binary Black Holes & Dual AGN 11
