Herschel observations of Cen A: stellar heating of two extragalactic dust clouds

Abstract

We present the first results of a multiwavelength survey, incorporating Herschel-, Spitzer, GALEX and Australian Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) observations, of a 1°× 1° field centred on Centaurus A. As well as detecting the inner lobes of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) jet and counterjet, we have found two clouds, bright at submillimetre wavelengths, ∼15 kpc from the centre of Cen A that are co-aligned with the jets. Flux measurements at …
