Reprocessing of Soft X-ray Emission Lines in Black Hole Accretion Disks
Christopher W. Mauche, Duane A. Liedahl, Benjamin F. Mathiesen +2
By means of a Monte Carlo code that accounts for Compton scattering and photoabsorption followed by recombination, we have investigated the radiation transfer of Ly alpha, He alpha…
The Stanford Cluster Search for Distant Galaxy Clusters
Jeffrey A. Willick, Keith L. Thompson, Benjamin F. Mathiesen +3
We describe the scientific motivation behind, and the methodology of, the Stanford Cluster Search (StaCS), a program to compile a catalog of optically selected clusters of galaxies…
The Effect of Formation Redshifts on the Cluster Mass-Temperature Relation
Benjamin F. Mathiesen
I employ an ensemble of hydrodynamical simulations and the XSPEC MEKAL emission model to reproduce observable spectral and flux-weighted temperatures for 24 clusters. Each cluster…
Four Measures of the Intracluster Medium Temperature and Their Relation to a Cluster's Dynamical State
Benjamin F. Mathiesen, August E. Evrard
We employ an ensemble of hydrodynamic cluster simulations to create spatially and spectrally resolved images of quality comparable to Chandra's expected performance. Emission from…
The Effects of Clumping and Substructure on ICM Mass Measurements
B. Mathiesen, A. E. Evrard, J. J. Mohr
We examine an ensemble of 48 simulated clusters to determine the effects of small-scale density fluctuations and large-scale substructure on X-ray measurements of the intracluster…
Properties of the Intracluster Medium in an Ensemble of Nearby Galaxy Clusters
Joe Mohr, Ben Mathiesen, Gus Evrard
We present a systematic analysis of the intracluster medium (ICM) in an X-ray flux limited sample of 45 galaxy clusters. Using archival ROSAT PSPC data and published ICM temperatur…
