Ruminations Upon the Modeling of X-ray Foregrounds, Backgrounds and Faint Sources
Adam B. Mantz, Anthony M. Flores, Taweewat Somboonpanyakul +4
With the goal of extracting as much information as possible from Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of faint, diffuse sources such as galaxy clusters, as well as those of future X…
SPT-CL J0417-4748: A Deep Chandra Study of a Relaxed Galaxy Cluster Without Central Star Formation
Taweewat Somboonpanyakul, Adam B. Mantz, Steven W. Allen +7
We present an in-depth Chandra X-ray analysis of the galaxy cluster SPT-CL J04174748 (hereafter SPT J0417), at z = 0.58, with a focus on its thermodynamic properties and the app…
Multiwavelength Characterization of a Dynamically Relaxed Cool Core Galaxy Cluster at
Anthony M. Flores, Adam B. Mantz, Steven W. Allen +5
We present imaging and spectroscopic analyses of Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of ACT-CL J0123.50428, one of the most massive, highest redshift galaxy clusters detected wi…
Deep Chandra Observations of the z = 1.16 Relaxed, Cool-core Galaxy Cluster SPT-CL J2215-3537
Haley R. Stueber, Adam B. Mantz, Steven W. Allen +10
Galaxy clusters serve as a unique and valuable laboratory for probing cosmological models and understanding astrophysics at the high-mass limit of structure formation. Clusters tha…
