The NuSTAR, XMM-Newton, and Suzaku view of A3395 at the intercluster filament interface
Aysegul Tumer, Daniel R. Wik, Massimo Gaspari +4
Galaxy clusters are the largest virialized objects in the universe. Their merger dynamics and their interactions with the cosmic filaments that connect them are important for our u…
MeerKAT view of the diffuse radio sources in Abell 3667 and their interactions with the thermal plasma
F. de Gasperin, L. Rudnick, A. Finoguenov +11
During their lifetime, galaxy clusters grow through the accretion of matter from the filaments of the large scale structure and from mergers with other clusters. These mergers rele…
Deep Chandra observations of merging galaxy cluster ZwCl 2341+0000
X. Zhang, A. Simionescu, C. Stuardi +9
Knowledge of X-ray shock and radio relic connection in merging galaxy clusters has been greatly extended in terms of both observation and theory over the last decade. ZwCl 2341+000…
DESHIMA 2.0: development of an integrated superconducting spectrometer for science-grade astronomical observations
Akio Taniguchi, Tom J. L. C. Bakx, Jochem J. A. Baselmans +32
Integrated superconducting spectrometer (ISS) technology will enable ultra-wideband, integral-field spectroscopy for (sub)millimeter-wave astronomy, in particular, for uncovering t…
Elemental Abundances of the Hot Atmosphere of Luminous Infrared Galaxy Arp 299
Junjie Mao, Ping Zhou, Aurora Simionescu +8
Hot atmospheres of massive galaxies are enriched with metals. Elemental abundances measured in the X-ray band have been used to study the chemical enrichment of supernova remnants,…
Impact of the absorber coupling design for Transition Edge Sensor X-ray Calorimeters
M. de Wit, L. Gottardi, E. Taralli +10
Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) are the selected technology for future spaceborne X-ray observatories, such as Athena, Lynx, and HUBS. These missions demand thousands of pixels to b…
A test platform for the detection and readout chain for the Athena X-IFU
Gabriele Betancourt-Martinez, François Pajot, Sophie Beaumont +26
We present a test platform for the Athena X-IFU detection chain, which will serve as the first demonstration of the representative end-to-end detection and readout chain for the X-…
Frequency Shift Algorithm: Design of a Baseband Phase Locked Loop for Frequency-Domain Multiplexing Readout of X-ray Transition-Edge Sensor Microcalorimeters
Paul van der Hulst, Jan van der Kuur, Ad Nieuwenhuizen +5
The Transition-Edge Sensor (TES) is an extremely sensitive device which is used to measure the energy of individual X-ray photons. For astronomical spectrometry applications, SRON…
Jets from MRC 0600-399 bent by magnetic fields in the cluster Abell 3376
James O. Chibueze, Haruka Sakemi, Takumi Ohmura +7
Galaxy clusters are known to harbour magnetic fields. The nature of the intra-cluster magnetic fields remains an unresolved question. Intra-cluster magnetic field can be observed a…
Signatures of large-scale cold fronts in the optically-selected merging cluster HSC J085024+001536
Keigo Tanaka, Ryuichi Fujimoto, Nobuhiro Okabe +5
We represent a joint X-ray, weak-lensing, and optical analysis of the optically-selected merging cluster, HSC J085024+001536, from the Subaru HSC-SSP survey. Both the member galaxy…
Nonthermal phenomena in the center of Abell 1775: An 800 kpc head-tail, revived fossil plasma and slingshot radio halo
A. Botteon, S. Giacintucci, F. Gastaldello +15
Thermal gas in the center of galaxy clusters can show substantial motions that generate surface-brightness and temperature discontinuities known as cold fronts. The motions may be…
