BeppoSAX observations of three distant, highly luminous clusters of galaxies: RXJ1347-1145, Z3146 and A2390

S. Ettori, S. W. Allen, A. C. Fabian

We present an analysis of BeppoSAX observations of three clusters of galaxies which are amongst the most luminous in the Universe: RXJ1347-1145, Zwicky 3146 and Abell 2390. Using d…

Chandra constraints on the thermal conduction in the intracluster plasma of A2142

S. Ettori, A. C. Fabian

In this Letter, we use the recent Chandra observation of A2142 reported by Markevitch et al. to put constraints on thermal conduction in the intracluster plasma. We show that the o…

ROSAT PSPC observations of the outer regions of the Perseus cluster of galaxies

S. Ettori, A. C. Fabian, D. A. White

We present an analysis of four off-axis ROSAT PSPC observations of the Perseus cluster of galaxies (Abell~426). We detect the surface brightness profile to a radius of 80 arcmin ($…

Coulomb interactions in the intracluster medium

S. Ettori, A. C. Fabian

In this paper we discuss the effect of Coulomb collisions on the temperature profiles of the intracluster medium in clusters of galaxies, motivated by recent reports of negative te…

On the mass distribution in the Shapley Supercluster inferred from X-ray observations

S. Ettori, A. C. Fabian, D. A. White

We present an analysis of a mosaic of ROSAT PSPC and Einstein Observatory IPC X-ray observations of 14 clusters and 2 groups of galaxies, enclosed in a sky area 15 degrees by 20 de…
