Universal thermodynamic properties of the intracluster medium over two decades in radius in the X-COP sample [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Context. The hot plasma in a galaxy cluster is expected to be heated to high temperatures through shocks and adiabatic compression. The thermodynamical properties of the gas encode information on the processes leading to the thermalization of the gas in ...

Cosmological simulations of the intracluster medium [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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 ...

Electron Reacceleration via Ion Cyclotron Waves in the Intracluster Medium

open access: yesThe 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.

Formation of multiphase plasma in galactic haloes and an analogy to solar plasma

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

The loss of the intracluster medium in globular clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Calcium-rich Gap Transients: Solving the Calcium Conundrum in the Intracluster Medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Dynamical evolution of magnetic fields in the intracluster medium [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.

The Magnetothermal Instability in the Intracluster Medium [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2008
The electron mean free path in the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters is much larger than the gyroradius; thus, heat is transported anisotropically along magnetic field lines. We show that the intracluster medium is unstable to the magnetothermal instability (MTI) using MHD simulations with anisotropic thermal conduction.
