Magnetic fields in the intracluster medium with TNG-Cluster: properties, morphology, and tangential anisotropy

Katrin Lehle, Mateusz Ruszkowski, Dylan Nelson +2

We characterize the magnetic field properties of 352 massive galaxy clusters from the TNG-Cluster magnetohydrodynamical cosmological simulation with a focus on central magnetic fie…

Mass Proxy Quality of Massive Halo Properties in the IllustrisTNG and FLAMINGO Simulations: I. Hot Gas

Eddie Aljamal, August E. Evrard, Arya Farahi +5

We examine scale and redshift dependence of mass-property relations (MPRs) for five hot gas properties of two large group- and cluster-scale halo samples realized by the IllustrisT…

Quantifying the Impact of Incompleteness on Identifying and Interpreting Galaxy Protocluster Populations with the TNG-Cluster Simulation

Devontae C. Baxter, Alison L. Coil, Ethan O. Nadler +7

We use the TNG-Cluster simulation to investigate how stellar mass and star formation rate (SFR) incompleteness affect the identification of density peaks within galaxy protocluster…

X-ray cavities in TNG-Cluster: a direct comparison to observations

Marine Prunier, Annalisa Pillepich, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo +1

The TNG-Cluster magnetohydrodynamic cosmological simulations, produce a diverse population of X-ray cavities in the intracluster medium (ICM) of simulated galaxy clusters. These ar…

What Drives Cluster Cool-Core Transformations? A Population Level Analysis of TNG-Cluster

Katrin Lehle, Dylan Nelson, Annalisa Pillepich

In this study, we examine the frequency and physical drivers of transformations from cool-core (CC) to non-cool-core (NCC) clusters, and vice versa, in a sample of 352 massive gala…

The abundance and origin of cool gas in galaxy clusters in the TNG-Cluster simulation

Milan Staffehl, Dylan Nelson, Mohammadreza Ayromlou +2

In addition to the hot intracluster medium, massive galaxy clusters host complex, multi-phase gaseous halos. In this work, we quantify the abundance, spatial distribution, and orig…
