Sloshing of the Magnetized Cool Gas in the Cores of Galaxy Clusters
J. A. ZuHone, M. Markevitch, D. Lee
X-ray observations of many clusters of galaxies reveal the presence of edges in surface brightness and temperature, known as "cold fronts". In relaxed clusters with cool cores, the…
Fast simulations of gas sloshing and cold front formation
E. Roediger, J. A. ZuHone
We present a simplified and fast method for simulating minor mergers between galaxy clusters. Instead of following the evolution of the dark matter halos directly by the N-body met…
Sloshing Gas in the Core of the Most Luminous Galaxy Cluster RXJ1347.5-1145
Ryan E. Johnson, John A. ZuHone, Christine Jones +2
We present new constraints on the merger history of the most X-ray luminous cluster of galaxies, RXJ1347.5-1145, based its unique multiwavelength morphology. Our X-ray analysis con…
Testing the Connection Between Radio Mini-Halos and Core Gas Sloshing with MHD Simulations
John ZuHone, Maxim Markevitch, Gianfranco Brunetti
Radio mini-halos are diffuse, steep-spectrum synchrotron sources associated with relaxed clusters of galaxies. Observations of some mini-halo sources indicate a correlation between…
