We have examined the morphological make-up of X-ray bright groups. The brighter galaxies in these groups exhibit clear morphology-density and morphology-radius relations. The group morphology-density relation is offset from the cluster…

We simulate the formation of a large X-ray cluster using a fully 3D hydrodynamical code coupled to a Particle-Mesh scheme which models the dark matter component. We focus on a possible decoupling between electrons and ions temperatures. We…

In this paper, we investigate the effect of cooling on the X-ray properties of galaxy clusters. We have performed N-body, hydrodynamical simulations both with and without the effects of radiative cooling, but neglecting the effects of star…

Using a sample of ten nearby (z< 0.15), relaxed galaxy clusters in the temperature range [2-9] keV, we have investigated the scaling relation between the mass at various density contrasts (delta=2500,1000,500,200) and the cluster…

Properties of the hot intracluster and intragroup medium are mostly set by the underlying gravitational potential well, although complex astrophysical processes at play during their buildup may leave a significant imprint. Observational…

We present a very large high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation, the Millennium-XXL or MXXL, which uses 303 billion particles to represent the formation of dark matter structures throughout a 4.1Gpc box in a LambdaCDM cosmology. We…

It has become increasingly apparent that traditional hydrodynamical simulations of galaxy clusters are unable to reproduce the observed properties of galaxy clusters, in particular overpredicting the mass corresponding to a given cluster…

A precise understanding of the relations between observable X-ray properties of galaxy clusters and cluster mass is a vital part of the application of X-ray galaxy cluster surveys to test cosmological models. An understanding of how these…

Deviations of galaxy groups from cluster scaling relations can be understood in terms of an excess of entropy in groups. The main effect of this excess is to reduce the density and thus luminosity of the intragroup gas. Given this, groups…

We present the first self-consistently computed results on the evolution of X-ray properties of galaxy clusters in a Cold + Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) model. We have performed a hydrodynamic plus N-body simulation for the COBE-compatible CHDM…

We present relations between X-ray luminosity and velocity dispersion (L-sigma), X-ray luminosity and gas mass (L-Mgas), and cluster radius and velocity dispersion (r500-sigma) for 62 galaxy clusters in the HIFLUGCS, an X-ray flux-limited…

(Abridged) We revisit the scaling relationships between the dark matter mass and observed X-ray luminosity and temperature of galaxy clusters and groups in the local Universe. Specifically, we compare recent observations with analytic…

Most studies of correlations between X-ray and optical properties of galaxy clusters have used the largest samples of data available, regardless of the morphological types of clusters included. Given the increasing evidence that morphology…

We study the redshift evolution of the X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) scaling relations for galaxy groups and clusters in the FABLE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. Using an expanded sample of $27$ high-resolution…

We constrain gas and dark matter (DM) parameters of galaxy groups and clusters, by comparing X-ray scaling relations to theoretical expectations, obtained assuming that the gas is in hydrostatic equilibrium with the DM and follows a…

The degree of complexity and, to a somewhat lesser degree, realism in simulations has advanced rapidly in the past few years. The simplest approach - modeling a cluster as collisionless dark matter and collisonal, non--radiative gas is now…

Like early-type galaxies, also nearby galaxy clusters define a Fundamental Plane, a luminosity-radius, and a luminosity-velocity dispersion relations, whose physical origin is still unclear. By means of high resolution N--body simulations…

We present a detailed study of scaling relations between total cluster mass and three mass proxies based on X-ray observables: temperature of the intra-cluster medium, gas mass and the product of the two, Y_X. Our analysis is based on two…

(Abridged) We examine the X-ray luminosity scaling relations of 31 nearby galaxy clusters from the Representative XMM-Newton Cluster Structure Survey (REXCESS). The objects are selected in X-ray luminosity only, optimally sampling the…

We investigate the form and evolution of the X-ray luminosity-temperature (LT) relation of a sample of 114 galaxy clusters observed with Chandra at 0.1<z<1.3. The clusters were divided into subsamples based on their X-ray morphology or…
