Gas clumping in galaxy clusters

D. Eckert, M. Roncarelli, S. Ettori +4

The reconstruction of galaxy cluster's gas density profiles is usually performed by assuming spherical symmetry and averaging the observed X-ray emission in circular annuli. In the…

The Hot and Energetic Universe: The astrophysics of galaxy groups and clusters

S. Ettori, G. W. Pratt, J. de Plaa +28

As the nodes of the cosmic web, clusters of galaxies trace the large-scale distribution of matter in the Universe. They are thus privileged sites in which to investigate the comple…

The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission

Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Xavier Barcons +237

This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of tw…

Abell 2142 at large scales: An extreme case for sloshing?

M. Rossetti, D. Eckert, S. De Grandi +4

We present results obtained with a new XMM-Newton observation of A2142, a famous textbook example of cluster with multiple cold fronts, which has been studied in detail with Chandr…

Sloshing cold fronts in galaxy groups and their perturbing disk galaxies: an X-ray, Optical and Radio Case Study

F. Gastaldello, L. Di Gesu, S. Ghizzardi +10

We present a combined X-ray, optical, and radio analysis of the galaxy group IC 1860 using the currently available Chandra and XMM data, literature multi-object spectroscopy data a…
