On the Formation of Cool, Non-Flowing Cores in Galaxy Clusters via Hierarchical Mergers
J. O. Burns, P. M. Motl, M. L. Norman +1
We present a new model for the creation of cool cores in rich galaxy clusters within a LambdaCDM cosmological framework using the results from high spatial dynamic range, adaptive…
The Impact of Star Formation on Cool Core Galaxy Clusters
P. M. Motl, J. O. Burns, M. L. Norman +1
We present results from recent simulations of the formation and evolution of clusters of galaxies in a LambdaCDM cosmology. These simulations contain our most physically complete i…
Simulated Cluster Archive: A Computational Catalog of X-Ray Clusters in a Lambda-CDM Universe
Michael L. Norman, Greg Daues, Erik Nelson +4
We have simulated the evolution of a large sample of X-ray clusters in a Lambda-CDM universe at high spatial resolution using adaptive mesh refinement and placed the results in an…
"Listening" To Cluster Cooling Flows: Radio Emission and the Cluster Environment
Jack O. Burns, Chris Loken, Percy Gomez +4
The radio continuum properties of galaxy clusters with cooling flows are reviewed along with the relationship to the X-ray environment. We find that 60-70% of cD galaxies in coolin…
