THE ENRICHMENT OF THE INTRACLUSTER MEDIUM [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 To determine the relative contributions of galactic and intracluster stars to the enrichment of the intracluster medium (ICM), we present X-ray surface brightness, temperature, and Fe abundance profiles for a set of twelve galaxy clusters for which we have extensive optical photometry.

THE INTRAGROUP VERSUS THE INTRACLUSTER MEDIUM [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2016 ABSTRACT Galaxy groups differ from clusters primarily by way of their lower masses, M ∼ 1014 M ⊙ versus M ∼ 1015 M ⊙. We discuss how mass affects the thermal state of the intracluster or the intragroup medium, specifically as to their entropy levels and radial ...

Electron Reacceleration via Ion Cyclotron Waves in the Intracluster Medium
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In galaxy clusters, the intracluster medium (ICM) is expected to host a diffuse, long-lived, and invisible population of “fossil” cosmic-ray electrons (CRe) with 1–100 MeV energies.

Plasma Physics of the Intracluster Medium
, 2022 This Chapter provides a brief tutorial on some aspects of plasma physics that are fundamental to understanding the dynamics and energetics of the intracluster medium (ICM). The tutorial is split into two parts: one that focuses on the thermal plasma component -- its stability, viscosity, conductivity, and ability to amplify magnetic fields to dynamical

Cosmological simulations of the intracluster medium [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2004 We investigate the properties of the intracluster medium (ICM) that forms within N-body/hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters in a \LambdaCDM cosmology. When radiative cooling and a simple model for galactic feedback are included, our clusters have X-ray luminosities and temperatures in good agreement with observed systems, demonstrating the ...

Modelling the Energy Spectra of Radio Relics
Galaxies, 2021 Radio relics are diffuse synchrotron sources that illuminate shock waves in the intracluster medium. In recent years, radio telescopes have provided detailed observations about relics.
