Exemplary Merging Clusters II: XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray Observations of MACS J1752.0+4440 and ZwCl 1856.8+6616
K. HyeongHan, K. Finner, W. Lee +10
Using deep XMM-Newton and Chandra observations, we compare the double-radio-relic galaxy cluster mergers MACS J1752.0+4440 and ZwCl 1856.8+6616. Both are 1:1 mass-ratio mergers wit…
Sloshing Motions in Abell 3571 Revealed by XRISM/Resolve Velocity Mapping
Itsuki Aihara, Congyao Zhang, Sora Nakajima +12
Minor mergers can induce sloshing motions in the intracluster medium, leaving characteristic signatures in the thermodynamic structure and gas kinematics of cluster cores. Abell 35…
Mapping the Nearest Ancient Sloshing Cold Front in the Sky with XMM-Newton
Sheng-Chieh Lin, Yuanyuan Su, Iraj Vaezzadeh +8
The Virgo Cluster is the nearest cool core cluster that features two well-studied sloshing cold fronts at radii of kpc and kpc, respectively. In this…
PSZ2 G181.06+48.47 I: X-ray exploration of a low-mass cluster with exceptionally-distant radio relics
Andra Stroe, Kamlesh Rajpurohit, Zhenlin Zhu +13
Relics are diffuse, highly-polarized radio sources that trace merger-driven shocks at the periphery of merging galaxy clusters. The LOFAR survey recently discovered a rare example…
Merger-driven multi-scale ICM density perturbations: testing cosmological simulations and constraining plasma physics
Annie Heinrich, Irina Zhuravleva, Congyao Zhang +3
The hot intracluster medium (ICM) provides a unique laboratory to test multi-scale physics in numerical simulations and probe plasma physics. Utilizing archival Chandra observation…
Chandra Observations of the Spectacular A3411-12 Merger Event
Felipe Andrade-Santos, Reinout J. van Weeren, Gabriella Di Gennaro +17
We present deep Chandra observations of A3411-12, a remarkable merging cluster that hosts the most compelling evidence for electron re-acceleration at cluster shocks to date. Using…
Evidence for a merger induced shock wave in ZwCl\,0008.8+5215 with {\it Chandra} and {\it Suzaku}
G. Di Gennaro, R. J. van Weeren, F. Andrade-Santos +8
We present the results from new deep {\it Chandra} (~ks) and {\it Suzaku} ( ks) observations of the merging galaxy cluster ZwCl\,0008.8+5215 (). Previous…
