An Analytic Model of the Physical Properties of Galaxy Clusters

G. Esra Bulbul, Nicole Hasler, Massimiliano Bonamente +1

We introduce an analytic model of the diffuse intergalactic medium in galaxy clusters based on a polytropic equation of state for the gas in hydrostatic equilibrium with the cluste…

XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL analysis of the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies

J. Nevalainen, D. Eckert, J. Kaastra +2

We investigated the non-thermal hard X-ray emission in the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies. Our aim was to characterise the physical properties of the non-thermal component and its i…

LoCuSS: A Comparison of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect and Gravitational Lensing Measurements of Galaxy Clusters

Daniel P. Marrone, Graham P. Smith, Johan Richard +19

We present the first measurement of the relationship between the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect signal and the mass of galaxy clusters that uses gravitational lensing to measure cluster…

Dark matter and Modified Newtonian Dynamics in a sample of high-redshift galaxy clusters observed with Chandra

Carl Blaksley, Massimiliano Bonamente

We compare the measurement of the gravitational mass of 38 high-redshift galaxy clusters observed by Chandra using Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and standard Newtonian gravity…

Soft X-ray excess of clusters: a thermal filament model, and the strong lensing of background galaxy groups

Richard Lieu, Max Bonamente

The observational and theoretical status of the search for missing cosmological baryons is summarized, with a discussion of some indirect methods of detection. The thermal interpre…

Cosmological Studies With A Large-Area X-ray Telescope

A. Vikhlinin, S. W. Allen, M. Arnaud +11

A moderate investment of observing time with the International X-ray Observatory to study high-redshift galaxy clusters detected in future large-scale surveys, will provide cosmolo…
