Direct constraints on the dark matter self-interaction cross-section from the merging galaxy cluster 1E0657-56

M. Markevitch, A. H. Gonzalez, D. Clowe +6

We compare new maps of the hot gas, dark matter, and galaxies for 1E0657-56, a cluster with a rare, high-velocity merger occurring nearly in the plane of the sky. The X-ray observa…

CHANDRA observations of the NGC 1550 galaxy group -- implication for the temperature and entropy profiles of 1 keV galaxy groups

M. Sun, W. Forman, A. Vikhlinin +3

We present a detailed \chandra study of the galaxy group NGC 1550. For its temperature (1.370.01 keV) and velocity dispersion ( 300 km s), the NGC 1550 group is o…

A Possible Shock Wave in the Intergalactic Medium of the Cluster of Galaxies A754

R. Krivonos, A. Vikhlinin, M. Markevitch +1

The cluster of galaxies A754 undergoes a merger of several large structural units. X-ray observations show a nonequilibrium state of the central part of the cluster, in which a clo…

An Unusual Discontinuity in the X-ray Surface Brightness Profile of NGC 507: Evidence of an Abundance Gradient?

R. P. Kraft, W. R. Forman, E. Churazov +6

We present results from a 45 ks Chandra/ACIS-I observation of the nearby () NGC 507 group. The X-ray surface brightness profile of the outer region of the group is well…
