Suzaku Observations of the Cluster Outskirts and Intercluster Filament in the Triple Merger Cluster Abell 98

Gabriella E. Alvarez, Scott W. Randall, Yuanyuan Su +5

We present Suzaku observations of the Abell 98 (A98) triple galaxy cluster system and the purported intercluster filament. The three subclusters are expected to lie along a large s…

Cluster outskirts and their connection to the cosmic web

Stephen Walker, Erwin Lau

We review the latest developments in our X-ray observational and theoretical understanding of the outskirts of galaxy clusters, and their connection to the cosmic web. The faint cl…

Gas clumping in the outskirts of the Virgo cluster

M. S. Mirakhor, S. A. Walker

Observations of the ICM in the outskirts of the Virgo cluster with Suzaku have found the gas mass fraction in the northern direction to be significantly above the expected level, i…

A high coverage view of the thermodynamics and metal abundance in the outskirts of the nearby galaxy cluster Abell 2199

M. S. Mirakhor, S. A. Walker

We present a joint Suzaku and XMM-Newton analysis of the outskirts of the nearby galaxy cluster Abell 2199, the only nearby galaxy cluster to be observed with near complete azimuth…

Voyage through the Hidden Physics of the Cosmic Web

A. Simionescu, S. Ettori, N. Werner +27

The majority of the ordinary matter in the local Universe has been heated by strong structure formation shocks and resides in a largely unexplored hot, diffuse, X-ray emitting plas…

Probing Macro-Scale Gas Motions and Turbulence in Diffuse Cosmic Plasmas

Esra Bulbul, Massimo Gaspari, Gabriella Alvarez +31

Clusters of galaxies, the largest collapsed structures in the Universe, are located at the intersection of extended filaments of baryons and dark matter. Cosmological accretion ont…
