The nature of the motions of multiphase filaments in the centers of galaxy clusters
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 The intracluster medium (ICM) in the centers of galaxy clusters is heavily influenced by the “feedback” from supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Feedback can drive turbulence in the ICM and turbulent dissipation can potentially be an important source of ...

Calcium-rich Gap Transients: Solving the Calcium Conundrum in the Intracluster Medium [PDF]
, 2014 X-ray measurements suggest the abundance of Calcium in the intracluster medium is higher than can be explained using favored models for core-collapse and Type Ia supernovae alone.

Differential reddening in 48 globular clusters: An end to the quest for the intracluster medium [PDF]
Astronomy & AstrophysicsFor decades, it has been theorized that a tenuous but detectable intracluster medium should be present in globular clusters, which is continuously replenished by the gas and dust ejected by bright giants and periodically cleared by interactions with the ...

Dynamical evolution of magnetic fields in the intracluster medium [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 We investigate the evolution of magnetic fields in galaxy clusters starting from constant primordial fields using highly resolved ($\approx \rm 4 ~kpc$) cosmological MHD simulations.

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.

The loss of the intracluster medium in globular clusters [PDF]
, 2020 Stars in globular clusters (GCs) lose a non negligible amount of mass during their post-main sequence evolution. This material is then expected to build up a substantial intra-cluster medium (ICM) within the GC.

Formation of multiphase plasma in galactic haloes and an analogy to solar plasma
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Thermal instability (TI) potentially explains the origin of cold gas in the intracluster medium (ICM), which is heated sufficiently by AGN feedback. The Hα filaments seen in cluster cores provide strong motivation for TI.

Enrichment of the Hot Intracluster Medium: Observations [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2018 Four decades ago, the firm detection of an Fe-K emission feature in the X-ray spectrum of the Perseus cluster revealed the presence of iron in its hot intracluster medium (ICM).

Turbulent pressure support and hydrostatic mass bias in the intracluster medium [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 The degree of turbulent pressure support by residual gas motions in galaxy clusters is not well known. Mass modelling of combined X-ray and Sunyaev–Zel’dovich observations provides an estimate of turbulent pressure support in the outer regions of ...

Mapping the intracluster medium temperature in the era of NIKA2 and MUSTANG-2 [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 We present preliminary results from an on-going program that aims at mapping the intracluster medium (ICM) temperature of high redshift galaxy clusters from the MaDCoWS sample using a joint analysis of shallow X-ray data obtained by Chandra and high ...
