Public AstroNight - Voyage au coeur d'un amas de galaxies

Marie-Lou Gendron-Marsolais (Université de Montréal)

Jun 21, 2018 7:00 PM
Location: McIntyre Medical Building
Outreach Event

Situé à «seulement» 250 millions d’années-lumière de la Terre, l’amas de Persée est un amas de galaxies voisin où l’on peut observer en détail l’effervescence qui y règne: du gaz diffus, dont la température moyenne est de quelques dizaines de millions de degrés, une galaxie elliptique géante entourée de mystérieux filaments de gaz s’étendant sur une distance de deux fois et demie la taille de notre propre galaxie, ainsi que des trous noirs supermassifs propulsant de puissants jets de particules… Au cours de cette conférence, nous plongerons au cœur de cet amas et je présenterai les différentes façons d’étudier cet environnement complexe grâce aux instruments astronomiques de pointe couvrant tout le spectre électromagnétique.
