Constraining the origin and models of chemical enrichment in galaxy clusters using the Athena X-IFU
F. Mernier, E. Cucchetti, L. Tornatore +16
The chemical enrichment of the Universe at all scales is related to stellar winds and explosive supernovae phenomena. Metals produced by stars and later spread at the mega-parsec s…
SIXTE -- The Generic X-ray Instrument Simulation Toolkit
Thomas Dauser, Sebastian Falkner, Maximilian Lorenz +8
We give an overview of the SImulation of X-ray TElescopes (SIXTE) software package, a generic, mission-independent Monte Carlo simulation toolkit for X-ray astronomical instrumenta…
Towards mapping turbulence in the intra-cluster medium -- II. Measurement uncertainties in the estimation of structure functions
E. Cucchetti, N. Clerc, E. Pointecouteau +2
X-ray observations of the hot gas filling the intra-cluster medium provide a wealth of information on the dynamics of clusters of galaxies. The global equilibrium of the ICM is bel…
Towards mapping turbulence in the intra-cluster medium -- I. Sample variance in spatially-resolved X-ray line diagnostics
N. Clerc, E. Cucchetti, E. Pointecouteau +1
X-ray observations of galaxy clusters provide insights on the nature of gaseous turbulent motions, their physical scales and on the fundamental processes they are related to. Spati…
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…
Athena X-IFU synthetic observations of galaxy clusters to probe the chemical enrichment of the Universe
E. Cucchetti, E. Pointecouteau, P. Peille +14
Answers to the metal production of the Universe can be found in galaxy clusters, notably within their Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM). The X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) on board the…
