The dynamics of the Anglerfish cluster
B. Destefanis, M. Balboni, I. Bartalucci +8
Merging galaxy clusters represent the ideal laboratory to test our understanding of the large scale structure formation history and the processes involved. While many merging clust…
In medio stat virtus: enrichment history in poor galaxy clusters
G. Riva, S. Ghizzardi, S. Molendi +6
The enrichment history of galaxy clusters and groups remains far from being fully understood. Recent measurements in massive clusters have revealed remarkably flat iron abundance p…
CHEX-MATE: New detections and properties of the radio diffuse emission in massive clusters with MeerKAT
M. Balboni, F. Gastaldello, A. Bonafede +18
Modern radio telescopes are revolutionising our understanding of non-thermal phenomena in galaxy clusters, collecting large samples of extended sources with unprecedented sensitivi…
CHEX-MATE: Scaling relations of radio halo profiles for clusters in the LoTSS DR2 area
M. Balboni, S. Ettori, F. Gastaldello +21
The thermal and non-thermal components in galaxy clusters have properties that, although shaped from different physical phenomena, can share some similarities, mainly driven by the…
Spherical bias on the 3D reconstruction of the ICM density profile in galaxy clusters
I. Veronesi, I. Bartalucci, E. Rasia +9
X-ray observations of galaxy clusters are routinely used to derive radial distributions of ICM thermdynamical properties such as density and temperature. However, observations allo…
CHEX-MATE: the intracluster medium entropy distribution in the gravity-dominated regime
G. Riva, G. W. Pratt, M. Rossetti +26
We characterise the entropy profiles of 32 very high mass () galaxy clusters (HIGHMz), selected from the CHEX-MATE sample, to study the intracl…
PSZ2 G282.28+49.94, a recently discovered analogue of the famous Bullet Cluster
I. Bartalucci, M. Rossetti, W. Boschin +17
We present a detailed study of the gas and galaxy properties of the cluster PSZ2 G282.28+49.94 detected in the Planck all-sky survey. The intracluster medium (ICM) of this object a…
CHEX-MATE: A LOFAR pilot X-rayradio study on five radio halo clusters
M. Balboni, F. Gastaldello, A. Bonafede +24
The connection between the thermal and non-thermal properties in galaxy clusters hosting radio halos seems fairly well established. However, a comprehensive analysis of such a conn…
CHEX-MATE: Robust reconstruction of temperature profiles in galaxy clusters with XMM-Newton
M. Rossetti, D. Eckert, F. Gastaldello +25
The "Cluster HEritage project with \xmm: Mass Assembly and Thermodynamics at the Endpoint of structure formation" (CHEX-MATE) is a multi-year Heritage program, to obtain homogeneou…
The cool core state of Planck SZ-selected clusters versus X-ray selected samples: evidence for cool core bias
M. Rossetti, F. Gastaldello, D. Eckert +4
We characterized the population of galaxy clusters detected with the SZ effect with Planck, by measuring the cool core state of the objects in a well-defined subsample of the Planc…
The XMM Cluster Outskirts Project (X-COP)
D. Eckert, S. Ettori, E. Pointecouteau +3
Galaxy clusters are thought to grow hierarchically through the continuous merging and accretion of smaller structures across cosmic time. In the local Universe, these phenomena are…
Measuring the dynamical state of Planck SZ-selected clusters: X-ray peak - BCG offset
M. Rossetti, F. Gastaldello, G. Ferioli +6
We want to characterize the dynamical state of galaxy clusters detected with the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect by Planck and compare them with the dynamical state of clusters selec…
The stripping of a galaxy group diving into the massive cluster A2142
D. Eckert, S. Molendi, M. Owers +7
Structure formation in the current Universe operates through the accretion of group-scale systems onto massive clusters. The detection and study of such accreting systems is crucia…
Abell 2142 at large scales: An extreme case for sloshing?
M. Rossetti, D. Eckert, S. De Grandi +4
We present results obtained with a new XMM-Newton observation of A2142, a famous textbook example of cluster with multiple cold fronts, which has been studied in detail with Chandr…
The gas distribution in the outer regions of galaxy clusters
D. Eckert, F. Vazza, S. Ettori +7
We present the analysis of a local (z = 0.04 - 0.2) sample of 31 galaxy clusters with the aim of measuring the density of the X-ray emitting gas in cluster outskirts. We compare ou…
Back and forth from cool core to non-cool core: clues from radio-halos
M. Rossetti, D. Eckert, B. M. Cavalleri +3
X-ray astronomers often divide galaxy clusters into two classes: "cool core" (CC) and "non-cool core" (NCC) objects. The origin of this dichotomy has been the subject of debate in…
