Non-thermal emission in the core of Perseus: results from a long XMM-Newton observation

Silvano Molendi, Fabio Gastaldello

We employ a long XMM-Newton observation of the core of the Perseus cluster to validate claims of a non-thermal component discovered with Chandra. From a meticulous analysis of our…

Radial metallicity profiles for a large sample of galaxy clusters observed with XMM-Newton

A. Leccardi, S. Molendi

Aims. We measured radial metallicity profiles for a sample of ~50 hot, intermediate redshift galaxy clusters, selected from the XMM-Newton archive. Methods. As in our previous pape…

Radial temperature profiles for a large sample of galaxy clusters observed with XMM-Newton

A. Leccardi, S. Molendi

Aims. We measure, as far out as possible, radial temperature profiles for a sample of ~50 hot, intermediate redshift galaxy clusters, selected from the XMM-Newton archive, keeping…

The XMM-Newton wide-field survey in the COSMOS field: I. Survey description

G. Hasinger, N. Cappelluti, H. Brunner +21

We present the first set of XMM-Newton EPIC observations in the 2 square degree COSMOS field. The strength of the COSMOS project is the unprecedented combination of a large solid a…

A cluster in a crowded environment: XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of A3558

M. Rossetti, S. Ghizzardi, S. Molendi +1

Combining XMM-Newton and Chandra data, we have performed a detailed study of Abell 3558. Our analysis shows that its dynamical history is more complicated than previously thought.…

Searching for Sharp Surface Brightness Discontinuities: a Systematic Study of Cold Fronts in Galaxy Clusters

S. Ghizzardi, S. Molendi, A. Leccardi +1

We perform a systematic search of cold fronts in a sample of 62 clusters observed with XMM-Newton with redshift ranging from 0.01 to 0.3. We detect one or more cold fronts in 21 (3…
