Two-Temperature Intracluster Medium in Merging Clusters of Galaxies

open access: yes, 1999
We investigate the evolution of intracluster medium during a cluster merger, explicitly considering the relaxation process between the ions and electrons by N-body and hydrodynamical simulations.

The Fate of Asymptotic Giant Branch Winds in Massive Galaxies and the Intracluster Medium

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Winds from asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars not only provide mass and energy return, but also produce dust grains in massive elliptical galaxies. Due to the fast stellar velocity, the wind is thought to form a comet-like tail, similar to Mira in the ...

The Seeding of Cosmic Ray Electrons by Cluster Radio Galaxies: A Review

open access: yesGalaxies
Radio galaxies in clusters of galaxies are a prominent reservoir of magnetic fields and of non-thermal particles, which become mixed with the intracluster medium.

Probing cluster environments of blazars through gamma-gamma absorption

open access: yes, 2014
Most blazars are known to be hosted in giant elliptic galaxies, but their cluster environments have not been thoroughly investigated. Cluster environments may contain radiation fields of low-energy photons created by nearby galaxies and/or stars in the ...

Galaxy Cluster Radio Relics in Adaptive Mesh Refinement Cosmological Simulations: Relic Properties and Scaling Relationships

open access: yes, 2011
Cosmological shocks are a critical part of large-scale structure formation, and are responsible for heating the intracluster medium in galaxy clusters. In addition, they are also capable of accelerating non-thermal electrons and protons. In this work, we

Redshift Evolution in the Iron Abundance of the Intracluster Medium

open access: yes, 2009
Clusters of galaxies provide a closed box within which one can determine the chemical evolution of the gaseous baryons with cosmic time. We studied this metallicity evolution in the hot X-ray emitting baryons through an analysis of XMM-Newton ...

Merger Shocks Enhance Quenching in Local Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report evidence for enhanced quenching in low-redshift galaxy clusters hosting radio relics. This effect is strongest for low-mass galaxies and is consistent with a rapid quenching of star formation.

On viscosity, conduction and sound waves in the intracluster medium

open access: yes, 2005
Recent X-ray and optical observations of the Perseus cluster indicate that the viscous and conductive dissipation of sound waves is the mechanism responsible for heating the intracluster medium and thus balancing radiative cooling of cluster cores.
