Clusters of galaxies: beyond the thermal view
J. S. Kaastra, A. M. Bykov, S. Schindler +13
We present the work of an international team at the International Space Science Institute (ISSI) in Bern that worked together to review the current observational and theoretical st…
Constraining supernova models using the hot gas in clusters of galaxies
J. de Plaa, N. Werner, J. A. M. Bleeker +3
The hot Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM) in clusters of galaxies is a very large repository of metals produced by supernovae. We aim to accurately measure the abundances in the ICM of ma…
The X-ray synchrotron emission of RCW 86 and the implications for its age
Jacco Vink, Johan Bleeker, Kurt van der Heyden +3
We report here X-ray imaging spectroscopy observations of the northeastern shell of the supernova remnant RCW 86 with Chandra and XMM-Newton. Along this part of the shell the domin…
Chemical evolution in Sersic 159-03 observed with XMM-Newton
J. de Plaa, N. Werner, A. M. Bykov +6
Using a new long X-ray observation of the cluster of galaxies Sersic 159-03 with XMM-Newton, we derive radial temperature and abundance profiles using single- and multi-temperature…
XMM-Newton Spectroscopy of the Cluster of Galaxies 2A 0335+096
N. Werner, J. de Plaa, J. S. Kaastra +5
We present here the results of a deep (130 ks) XMM-Newton observation of the cluster of galaxies 2A 0335+096. The deep exposure allows us to study in detail its temperature structu…
The temperature structure in the core of Sersic 159-03
J. de Plaa, J. S. Kaastra, M. Mendez +6
We present results from a new 120 ks XMM-Newton observation of the cluster of galaxies Sersic 159-03. In this paper we focus on the high-resolution X-ray spectra obtained with the…
