Molecular Gas Filaments and Star-forming Knots Beneath an X-Ray Cavity in RXC J1504–0248

Molecular Gas Filaments and Star-forming Knots Beneath an X-Ray Cavity in RXC J1504–0248

We present recent ALMA observations of the CO (1-0) and CO (3-2) emission lines in the brightest cluster galaxy of RXC J1504.1-0248, which is one of the most extreme cool core clusters known. The central galaxy contains 1.9 - 1010 M⊙ of molecular gas. The molecular gas morphology is complex and dist...
