The structure of cluster merger shocks: turbulent width and the electron heating timescale
H. R. Russell, P. E. J. Nulsen, D. Caprioli +10
We present a new 2 Ms Chandra observation of the cluster merger Abell 2146, which hosts two huge M~2 shock fronts each ~500 kpc across. For the first time, we resolve and measure t…
