Are fossil groups a challenge of the Cold Dark Matter paradigm?
Stefano Zibetti, Daniele Pierini, Gabriel W. Pratt
We study six groups and clusters of galaxies suggested in the literature to be `fossil' systems (i.e. to have luminous diffuse X-ray emission and a magnitude gap of at least 2 mag-…

Diffuse stellar emission in X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at z~0.3 I. Is the diffuse optical light boosted and rejuvenated in merging clusters?
D. Pierini, S. Zibetti, F. Braglia +4
[Abridged] We searched for diffuse stellar emission around BCGs in three of the most X-ray luminous clusters found at z~0.3 in the REFLEX cluster survey and observed with XMM-Newto…

Statistical Properties of the IntraCluster Light from SDSS Image Stacking
Stefano Zibetti
The presence of a diffuse stellar component in galaxy clusters has been established by a number of observational works in recent years. In this contribution I summarize our results…
