LoCuSS: Comparison of Observed X-ray and Lensing Galaxy Cluster Scaling Relations with Simulations
Y. -Y. Zhang, A. Finoguenov, H. Boehringer +5
The Local Cluster Substructure Survey (LoCuSS, Smith et al.) is a systematic multi-wavelength survey of >100 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters (0.14<z<0.3) selected from the ROSAT all…
Magnetic field generation by the Weibel instability at temperature gradients in collisionless plasmas
Yutaka Fujita, Tsunehiko N. Kato, Nobuhiro Okabe
The Weibel instability could be responsible for the generation of magnetic fields in various objects such as gamma-ray bursts, jets from active galactic nuclei, and clusters of gal…
A Direct Method for Measuring Heat Conductivity in Intracluster Medium
Makoto Hattori, Nobuhiro Okabe
The inverse Compton scattering of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation with electrons in the intracluster medium which has a temperature gradient, was examined by the th…
A Spontaneous Generation of the Magnetic Field and Suppression of the Heat Conduction in Cold Fronts
Nobuhiro Okabe, Makoto Hattori
We have determined the physical mechanism responsible for the plasma instabilities, which was first found by Ramani and Laval (1978), associated with anisotropic velocity distribut…
