Toward the low-scatter selection of X-ray clusters: Galaxy cluster detection with eROSITA through cluster outskirts

Florian Käfer, Alexis Finoguenov, Dominique Eckert +4

One key ingredient in using galaxy clusters (GCs) as a precision cosmological probe in large X-ray surveys is to understand selection effects. The dependence of the X-ray emission…

Pressure profiles and mass estimates using high-resolution Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect observations of Zwicky 3146 with MUSTANG-2

Charles E. Romero, Jonathan Sievers, Vittorio Ghirardini +12

The galaxy cluster Zwicky 3146 is a sloshing cool core cluster at that in X-ray imaging does not appear to exhibit significant pressure substructure in the intracluster m…

Characterisation of the Particle-Induced Background of XMM-Newton EPIC-pn: Short and Long Term Variability

Esra Bulbul, Ralph Kraft, Paul Nulsen +16

The particle-induced background of X-ray observatories is produced by Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) primary protons, electrons, and He ions. Events due to direct interaction with the d…

The polytropic state of the intracluster medium in the X-COP cluster sample

Vittorio Ghirardini, Stefano Ettori, Dominique Eckert +1

In this work, we investigate the relation between the radially-resolved thermodynamic quantities of the intracluster medium in the X-COP cluster sample, aiming to assess the strati…

Probing Macro-Scale Gas Motions and Turbulence in Diffuse Cosmic Plasmas

Esra Bulbul, Massimo Gaspari, Gabriella Alvarez +31

Clusters of galaxies, the largest collapsed structures in the Universe, are located at the intersection of extended filaments of baryons and dark matter. Cosmological accretion ont…

Unveiling the Galaxy Cluster - Cosmic Web Connection with X-ray observations in the Next Decade

Stephen A. Walker, Daisuke Nagai, A. Simionescu +35

In recent years, the outskirts of galaxy clusters have emerged as one of the new frontiers and unique laboratories for studying the growth of large scale structure in the universe.…
