In 2001, Westerbork observations of the disturbed galaxy named VV-29 (alias Arp-188, UGC-10214) showed that there is second smaller galaxy (named VV-29c) that appears behind the western side of the main body of the distorted galaxy. ... The galaxy was featured as the May 2, 2002 Astronomy Picture of the Day . ... When VV-29 had its 15 minutes of fame in May 2002, it appeared under the name "The Tadpole Galaxy," but based on the images above, we will always think of it as "The CHAINSAW"! ...

... Programme . ... Abstract: As the nearest early-type galaxy, Centaurus A contains a treasure trove of information about X-ray binaries. With over 700 ks of Chandra observations spread over 10 years, the Centaurus A Very Large Project provides the deepest look at X-ray binaries in an early-type galaxy. ... Preliminary results have already shed light on the low-mass X-ray binary connection to globular clusters and the discovery of a remarkable transient ultra-luminous X-ray source. ...

... 3C294: Distant X Ray Galaxy Cluster . ... Astronomers now realize that a hallmark of these cosmic behemoths are gas clouds with temperatures of tens of millions of degrees that pervade the clusters and radiate strongly in x-rays. This Chandra Observatory image centered on a radio galaxy cataloged as 3C294 indeed reveals the telltale hot x-ray gas in an hourglass shaped region surrounding the dominant galaxy and shows the presence of a massive galaxy cluster in the distant universe . ...
