Efficient Production of Sound Waves by AGN Jets in the Intracluster Medium [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
We investigate the interaction between active galactic nucleus (AGN) jets and the intracluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters. Specifically, we study the efficiency with which jets can drive sound waves into the ICM. Previous works focused on this issue

Modelling the Energy Spectra of Radio Relics

open access: yesGalaxies, 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.

Intracluster Medium through three years of WMAP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) has provided us with the yet highest resolution all-sky maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background. As a result of thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect, clusters of galaxies are imprinted as tiny, poorly resolved ...

Measuring bulk flows of the intracluster medium in the Perseus and Coma galaxy clusters using XMM-Newton [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
We demonstrate a novel technique for calibrating the energy scale of the EPIC-pn detector on XMM-Newton, which allows us to measure bulk flows in the intracluster medium (ICM) of the Perseus and Coma galaxy clusters.

The quiescent intracluster medium in the core of the Perseus cluster [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2016
Clusters of galaxies are the most massive gravitationally bound objects in the Universe and are still forming. They are thus important probes of cosmological parameters and many astrophysical processes. However, knowledge of the dynamics of the pervasive

The Impact of Radio AGN Bubble Composition on the Dynamics and Thermal Balance of the Intracluster Medium [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
Feeding and feedback of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are critical for understanding the dynamics and thermodynamics of the intracluster medium (ICM) within the cores of galaxy clusters.

Enrichment of the Intracluster Medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The relevance of galaxies of different luminosity and mass for the chemical enrichment of the intracluster medium (ICM) is analysed. For this purpose, I adopt the composite luminosity function of cluster galaxies from Trentham (1998), which exhibits a significant rise at the very faint end.

The chemical evolution of galaxy clusters: Dissecting the iron mass budget of the intracluster medium

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2020
Aims. We study the chemical evolution of galaxy clusters by measuring the iron mass in the ICM after dissecting the abundance profiles into different components. Methods.

Stability analysis of convection in the intracluster medium [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters A, 2016
We use the machinery usually employed for studying the onset of Rayleigh--B nard convection in hydro- and magnetohydro-dynamic settings to address the onset of convection induced by the magnetothermal instability and the heat-flux-buoyancy-driven-instability in the weakly-collisional magnetized plasma permeating the intracluster medium.
