Investigating the hard X-ray emission from the hottest Abell cluster A2163 with Suzaku
N. Ota, K. Nagayoshi, G. W. Pratt +3
We present the results from Suzaku observations of the hottest Abell galaxy cluster A2163 at . To study the physics of gas heating in cluster mergers, we investigated hard X…
Athena+: The first Deep Universe X-ray Observatory
D. Barret, K. Nandra, X. Barcons +31
The Advanced Telescope for High-energy Astrophysics (Athena+) is being proposed to ESA as the L2 mission (for a launch in 2028) and is specifically designed to answer two of the mo…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: The missing baryons and the warm-hot intergalactic medium
Jelle Kaastra, Alexis Finoguenov, Fabrizio Nicastro +19
The backbone of the large-scale structure of the Universe is determined by processes on a cosmological scale and by the gravitational interaction of the dominant dark matter. Howev…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: AGN feedback in galaxy clusters and groups
J. H. Croston, J. S. Sanders, S. Heinz +25
Mechanical feedback via Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) jets in the centres of galaxy groups and clusters is a crucial ingredient in current models of galaxy formation and cluster evo…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: The astrophysics of galaxy groups and clusters
S. Ettori, G. W. Pratt, J. de Plaa +28
As the nodes of the cosmic web, clusters of galaxies trace the large-scale distribution of matter in the Universe. They are thus privileged sites in which to investigate the comple…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: The evolution of galaxy groups and clusters
E. Pointecouteau, T. H. Reiprich, C. Adami +45
Major astrophysical questions related to the formation and evolution of structures, and more specifically of galaxy groups and clusters, will still be open in the coming decade and…
The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission
Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Xavier Barcons +237
This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of tw…
