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…
Turbulent magnetic fields in merging clusters: A case study of Abell 2146
Urmila Chadayammuri, John ZuHone, Paul Nulsen +2
Kelvin-Helmholtz Instabilities (KHI) along contact discontinuities in galaxy clusters have been used to constrain the strength of magnetic fields in galaxy clusters, following the…
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…
Introducing RomulusC: A Cosmological Simulation of a Galaxy Cluster with Unprecedented Resolution
Michael Tremmel, Thomas R. Quinn, Angelo Ricarte +6
We present the first results from RomulusC, the highest resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulation of a galaxy cluster run to date. RomulusC, a zoom-in simulation of a halo wi…
