Chemical composition and enrichment of the Centaurus cluster core seen by XRISM/Resolve

F. Mernier, K. Fukushima, A. Simionescu +16

Hot, X-ray emitting atmospheres pervading galaxy clusters are rich in metals, which have been synthesised and released by asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars, core-collapse superno…

A Chandra view of SPT-CL J0217-5014: a massive galaxy cluster at a cosmic intersection at z=0.53

Dan Hu, Shida Fan, Zhongsheng Yuan +7

Galaxy clusters trace the densest regions of the cosmic web and are crucial laboratories for studying the thermodynamic and chemical evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM). We…

A non-uniform metal distribution in the ram-pressure stripped circumgalactic medium of M86

Sinancan Kara, François Mernier, Norbert Werner +1

The chemical enrichment of X-ray-emitting hot halos has primarily been studied in closed-box galaxy clusters. Investigating the metal content of lower-mass, open systems can serve…

Enrichment of the hot intracluster medium: observations

F. Mernier, V. Biffi, H. Yamaguchi +7

Four decades ago, the firm detection of an Fe-K emission feature in the X-ray spectrum of the Perseus cluster revealed the presence of iron in its hot intracluster medium (ICM). Wi…

Constraints on the Chemical Enrichment History of the Perseus Cluster of Galaxies from High-Resolution X-ray Spectroscopy

A. Simionescu, S. Nakashima, H. Yamaguchi +32

High-resolution spectroscopy of the core of the Perseus Cluster of galaxies, using the satellite above 2 keV and the - Reflection Grating Spectrometer at lowe…

Constraining supernova models using the hot gas in clusters of galaxies

J. de Plaa, N. Werner, J. A. M. Bleeker +3

The hot Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM) in clusters of galaxies is a very large repository of metals produced by supernovae. We aim to accurately measure the abundances in the ICM of ma…
