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,…

Cen A and its interaction with the x-ray emitting interstellar medium

D. M. Worrall, R. P. Kraft, M. Birkinshaw +4

As the closest radio galaxy, Centaurus A is a powerful laboratory for the X-ray study of radio-emitting structures and their interactions with the hot interstellar medium (ISM). Th…

A Flux Limited Atlas of Galaxy Cluster Temperature Maps

R. Hank Donnelly, C. Jones, W. Forman +2

An atlas of gas temperature maps is presented for a flux limited catalog of galaxy clusters. The sample of clusters is based on the Edge et al. (1990) sample, with the inclusion of…

The 160 Square Degree ROSAT Survey - Revised Catalog & Cluster Evolution

Christopher Mullis, Brian McNamara, Hernan Quintana +6

We have constructed a large, statistically complete sample of galaxy clusters serendipitously detected as extended X-ray sources in 647 ROSAT PSPC pointed observations. The survey…

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…
