The chemical enrichment of the ICM from hydrodynamical simulations

S. Borgani, D. Fabjan, L. Tornatore +3

The study of the metal enrichment of the intra-cluster and inter-galactic media (ICM and IGM) represents a direct means to reconstruct the past history of star formation, the role…

Population III stars: hidden or disappeared ?

L. Tornatore, A. Ferrara, R. Schneider

A PopIII/Pop II transition from massive to normal stars is predicted to occur when the metallicity of the star forming gas crosses the critical range Z_cr = 10^(-5 +/- 1) Z_sun. To…

X-MAS2: Study Systematics on the ICM Metallicity Measurements

E. Rasia, P. Mazzotta, H. Bourdin +5

(Abridged)The X-ray measurements of the ICM metallicity are becoming more frequent due to the availability of powerful X-ray telescope with excellent spatial and spectral resolutio…

Metal and molecule cooling in simulations of structure formation

U. Maio, K. Dolag, B. Ciardi +1

Cooling is the main process leading to the condensation of gas in the dark matter potential wells and consequently to star and structure formation. In a metal-free environment, the…

Chemical enrichment of galaxy clusters from hydrodynamical simulations

L. Tornatore, S. Borgani, K. Dolag +1

We present cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters aimed at studying the process of metal enrichment of the intra--cluster medium (ICM). These simulations have b…
