Cosmological constraints from evolution of cluster baryon mass function at z~0.5
A. Vikhlinin, A. Voevodkin, C. R. Mullis +8
We present a new method for deriving cosmological constraints based on the evolution of the baryon mass function of galaxy clusters, and implement it using 17 distant clusters from…
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…
Cooling Flows as a Calorimeter of AGN Mechanical Power
E. Churazov, R. Sunyaev, W. Forman +1
The assumption that radiative cooling of gas in the centers of galaxy clusters is approximately balanced by energy input from a central supermassive black hole implies that the obs…
