How do atomic code uncertainties affect abundance measurements in the intracluster medium?
F. Mernier, N. Werner, K. Lakhchaura +6
Accurate chemical abundance measurements of X-ray emitting atmospheres pervading massive galaxies, galaxy groups, and clusters provide essential information on the star formation a…
Observations of a Pre-Merger Shock in Colliding Clusters of Galaxies
Liyi Gu, Hiroki Akamatsu, Timothy W. Shimwell +10
Clusters of galaxies are the largest known gravitationally-bound structures in the Universe. When clusters collide, they create merger shocks on cosmological scales, which transfor…
Science with hot astrophysical plasmas
J. S. Kaastra, L. Gu, J. Mao +5
We present some recent highlights and prospects for the study of hot astrophysical plasmas. Hot plasmas can be studied primarily through their X-ray emission and absorption. Most a…
X-ray emission from thin plasmas. Collisional ionization for atoms and ions of H to Zn
I. Urdampilleta, J. S. Kaastra, M. Mehdipour
Every observation of astrophysical objects involving a spectrum requires atomic data for the interpretation of line fluxes, line ratios and ionization state of the emitting plasma.…
