Chandra temperature profiles for a sample of nearby relaxed galaxy clusters

A. Vikhlinin, M. Markevitch, S. S. Murray +3

We present Chandra gas temperature profiles at large radii for a sample of 13 nearby, relaxed galaxy clusters and groups, which includes A133, A262, A383, A478, A907, A1413, A1795,…

Dying Radio Galaxies In Clusters

M. Murgia, P. Parma, H. R. de Ruiter +2

We report the recent discovery of three `dying' radio galaxies belonging to the WENSS minisurvey sample: WNB1734+6407, WNB1829+6911 and WNB1851+5707. These sources have been select…

A High Angular Resolution View of Hot Gas in Clusters, Groups, and Galaxies

W. Forman, E. Churazov, L. David +6

We discuss two themes from Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of galaxies, groups, and clusters. First, we review observational aspects of cluster formation and evolution as matte…

A High Resolution Picture of the Intracluster Gas

M. Markevitch, A. Vikhlinin, W. R. Forman

Chandra has significantly advanced our knowledge of the processes in the intracluster gas. The discovery of remarkably regular ``cold fronts'', or contact discontinuities, in mergi…

Galaxy Clusters with Chandra

W. Forman, C. Jones, M. Markevitch +2

We discuss Chandra results related to 1) cluster mergers and cold fronts and 2) interactions between relativistic plasma and hot cluster atmospheres. We describe the properties of…

On the discrepancy between Chandra and XMM temperature profiles for A1835

Maxim Markevitch

This short technical note addresses a large discrepancy between the temperature profiles for the galaxy cluster A1835 derived by Schmidt et al. (2001) using Chandra and by Majerowi…
