Radio galaxies and energetics of the intracluster medium

open access: yes, 2002
The time- and ensemble-averaged mechanical energy outputs of radio galaxies may be large enough to offset much of the cooling inferred from X-ray observations of galaxy clusters.

Three-dimensional Thermodynamic Structures of the Intracluster Medium across Edges in the X-Ray Surface Brightness of Massive, Bright, Dynamically Active Galaxy Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a detailed study of three-dimensional (3D) thermodynamic structures of the intracluster medium (ICM) across edges in the X-ray surface brightness of four massive, bright, dynamically active galaxy clusters (A3667, A2319, A520, and A2146), with

Metal distribution in the intracluster medium: a comprehensive numerical study of twelve galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2014
We present a simulation setup for studying the dynamical and chemical evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM) and analyze a sample of 12 galaxy clusters that are diverse both kinetically (pre-merger, merging, virialized) and in ...

The Relation between the Cool-core Radius and the Host Galaxy Clusters: Thermodynamic Properties and Cluster Mass

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a detailed study of cool-core systems in a sample of four galaxy clusters (RXCJ1504.1-0248, A3112, A4059, and A478) using archival X-ray data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory.

Chemical Composition of the Intracluster Medium

open access: yes, 2003
Clusters of galaxies are massive enough to be considered representative samples of the Universe, and to retain all of the heavy elements synthesized in their constituent stars. Since most of these metals reside in hot plasma, X-ray spectroscopy of clusters provides a unique and fundamental tool for studying chemical evolution.

Iron abundances and heating of the intracluster medium in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2003
Hydrodynamical SPH simulations of galaxy clusters are used to investigate the metal enrichment of the intracluster medium. The final metallicity abundances of the simulated clusters are determined according to the numerical resolution and a number of ...

Intracluster Medium Fluctuations on Scales up to 1 Mpc: A Combined eROSITA and SPT/Planck Analysis of A3266

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galaxy clusters form through hierarchical assembly, where smaller substructures merge to build the largest gravitationally bound objects in the Universe. These mergers, combined with feedback from active galactic nucleus (AGN), filamentary accretion, and
