Temperature structure of the intergalactic medium within seven nearby and bright clusters of galaxies observed with XMM-Newton

H. Bourdin, P. Mazzotta

Aims. We map the temperature structure of the intra-cluster medium (ICM) within a nearly complete X-ray flux limited sample of galaxy clusters in the redshift range z=[0.045,0.096]…

A2163: Merger events in the hottest Abell galaxy cluster I. Dynamical analysis from optical data

S. Maurogordato, A. Cappi, C. Ferrari +7

We present a detailed optical analysis of the galaxy cluster A2163 based on new multicolor wide field imaging and medium-to-high resolution (R~2000) spectroscopy. While X-ray obser…

A multiscale regularized restoration algorithm for XMM-Newton data

H. Bourdin, E. Slezak, A. Bijaoui +1

We introduce a new multiscale restoration algorithm for images with few photons counts and its use for denoising XMM data. We use a thresholding of the wavelet space so as to remov…
