Ageing and dynamics of the tailed radio galaxies in Abell 2142
L. Bruno, T. Venturi, D. Dallacasa +11
Context. Tailed radio galaxies are shaped by ram pressure owing to the high-velocity motion of their host through the intracluster medium (ICM). Recent works have reported on the i…
Metal enrichment: the apex accretor perspective
S. Molendi, S. Ghizzardi, S. De Grandi +7
Aims. The goal of this work is to devise a description of the enrichment process in large-scale structure that explains the available observations and makes predictions for future…
The velocity field of the Lyra complex
M. Girardi, W. Boschin, S. De Grandi +7
The formation of cosmic structure culminates with the assembly of galaxy clusters, a process quite different from cluster to cluster. We present the study of the structure and dyna…
Deep Chandra observations of the stripped galaxy group falling into Abell 2142
D. Eckert, M. Gaspari, M. S. Owers +8
In the local Universe, the growth of massive galaxy clusters mainly operates through the continuous accretion of group-scale systems. The infalling group in Abell 2142 is the poste…
Where does the gas fueling star formation in BCGs originate?
S. Molendi, P. Tozzi, M. Gaspari +4
We investigate the relationship between X-ray cooling and star formation in brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs). We present an X-ray spectral analysis of the inner regions, 10-40 kpc…
A textbook example of ram-pressure stripping in the Hydra A/A780 cluster
S. De Grandi, D. Eckert, S. Molendi +7
In the current epoch, one of the main mechanisms driving the growth of galaxy clusters is the continuous accretion of group-scale halos. In this process, the ram pressure applied b…
