Global linear analysis of the magneto-thermal instability in a stratified spherical model of the intracluster medium
J. M. Kempf, H. Latter
The buoyancy stability properties of the ICM are modified because of the anisotropic transport of heat along the magnetic field lines. This feature gives rise to the MTI when the t…

Non-linear saturation and energy transport in global simulations of magneto-thermal turbulence in the stratified intracluster medium
Jean M. Kempf, François Rincon
Context. The magneto-thermal instability (MTI) is one of many possible drivers of stratified turbulence in the intracluster medium (ICM) outskirts of galaxy clusters, where the bac…
