The optical/X-ray connection: ICM iron content and galaxy optical luminosity in 20 galaxy clusters
T. F. Lagana, R. A. Dupke, L. Sodre +2
X-ray observations of galaxy clusters have shown that the intra-cluster gas has iron abundances of about one third of the solar value. These observations also show that part (if no…
Galaxy evolution in Abell 85: I. Cluster substructure and environmental effects on the blue galaxy population
H. Bravo-Alfaro, C. A. Caretta, C. Lobo +2
This series of papers explores the evolution of late-type galaxies in the rich cluster Abell 85. Here, we revisit the complex dynamical state of A 85 by using independent methods.…
Galaxies with Wolf-Rayet signatures in the low-redshift Universe - A survey using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
J. Brinchmann, D. Kunth, F. Durret
We have carried out a search for Wolf-Rayet galaxies in all galaxies with EW(Hb)>2AA in the SDSS DR6. We identify Wolf-Rayet features using a mixture of automatic and visual classi…
Kinematics and Stellar Populations of Low-Luminosity Early-Type Galaxies in the Abell 496 Cluster
Igor Chilingarian, Veronique Cayatte, Florence Durret +5
The morphology and stellar populations of low-luminosity early-type galaxies in clusters have until now been limited to a few relatively nearby clusters such as Virgo or Fornax. Sc…
Observations of metals in the intra-cluster medium
N. Werner, F. Durret, T. Ohashi +2
Because of their deep gravitational potential wells, clusters of galaxies retain all the metals produced by the stellar populations of the member galaxies. Most of these metals res…
Thermal radiation processes
J. S. Kaastra, F. B. S. Paerels, F. Durret +2
We discuss the different physical processes that are important to understand the thermal X-ray emission and absorption spectra of the diffuse gas in clusters of galaxies and the wa…
