The Quiescent Intracluster Medium in the Core of the Perseus Cluster

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +213

Clusters of galaxies are the most massive gravitationally-bound objects in the Universe and are still forming. They are thus important probes of cosmological parameters and a host…
