Internal kinematics of isolated modelled disk galaxies
W. Kapferer, T. Kronberger, S. Schindler +2
We present a systematic investigation of rotation curves (RCs) of fully hydrodynamically simulated galaxies, including cooling, star formation with associated feedback and galactic…
Metal Enrichment of the Intra-Cluster Medium: Ram-Pressure Stripping of Cluster Galaxies
W. Domainko, W. Kapferer, S. Schindler +4
We present numerical simulations of the dynamical and chemical evolution of galaxy clusters. X-ray spectra show that the intra-cluster medium contains a significant amount of metal…
Metal Enrichment and Energetics of Galactic Winds in Galaxy Clusters
W. Kapferer, D. Breitschwerdt, W. Domainko +4
We investigate efficiency and time dependence of metal enrichment processes in the Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM). In this presentation we concentrate on the effects of galactic winds.…
Clusters of Galaxies in X-rays: Dark Matter
Africa Castillo-Morales, Sabine Schindler
We present the analysis of baryonic and non-baryonic matter distribution in a sample of ten nearby clusters () with temperatures between 4.7 and 9.4 keV. These galaxy…
Clusters of galaxies: a fundamental pillar of cosmology
Africa Castillo-Morales, Sabine Schindler
Clusters of galaxies are used in a variety of ways to do cosmology. Some of them are presented here. Their X-ray emitting gas allows us to determine the baryon fraction, dark matte…
Cluster-Group Interaction in the Virgo Cluster
Sabine Schindler
We present two projects related to interaction in the Virgo cluster. In the first section we draw a quantitative comparison of the distribution of the galaxies and the intra-cluste…
