We have extended our H alpha objective prism survey of 8 low-redshift clusters (viz. Abell 262, 347, 400, 426, 569, 779, 1367 and 1656) to include a complete sample of early-type galaxies within 1.5 Abell radii of the cluster centres. Of…
Radio maps at 21 cm of foreground neutral hydrogen over three cooling flow clusters of galaxies show that the foreground gas is uniform on scales from about 1 -- 10 arcmin. Five sigma limits on fluctuations in the foreground column density…
We present an X-ray analysis of the rich cluster ABCG 85 based on ROSAT PSPC data. By applying an improved wavelet analysis, we show that our view of this cluster is notably changed from what was previously believed (a main region and a…
We use the weak gravitational lensing effect to study the mass distribution and dynamical state of a sample of 24 X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies ($0.05<z<0.31$) observed with the VLT-FORS1 under homogeneous sky conditions and…
We have analyzed X-ray spectra from six galaxy clusters which contain cooling flows: A85, A478, A1795, A2142, A2147, & A2199. The X-ray spectra were taken with the HEAO1-A2 Medium and High Energy Detectors and the Einstein Solid State…
Abell 3571 is a nearby, X-ray bright galaxy cluster located in the Shapley Supercluster. Although it appears morphologically relaxed in X-ray images, multiwavelength observations reveal subtle indications of residual dynamical activity,…
Recent observations with the XMM-Newton satellite confirmed the existence of the soft excess phenomenon in galaxy clusters, earlier discovered in several EUVE, ROSAT and BeppoSAX observations. Among the clusters for which XMM has reported…
A combination of $BRI$ photometry and archival Chandra X-ray data have been used to analyse the effects a minor merger has on the galaxy population of A1664. We utilise adaptive smoothing techniques in the 2D spatial distribution of cluster…
The nearby ($z=0.03015$) cluster of galaxies Abell~2199 was observed by Suzaku in X-rays, with five pointings for $\sim 20$ ks each. From the XIS data, the temperature and metal abundance profiles were derived out to $\sim 700$ kpc (0.4…
We observed outer regions of a bright cluster of galaxies A2142 with Suzaku. Temperature and brightness structures were measured out to the virial radius ($r_{200}$) with good sensitivity. We confirmed the temperature drop from 9 keV around…
We have searched the far-UV spectra of five clusters of galaxies observed with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) for emission in the resonance lines of O VI (1032,1038 A) and C IV (1548,1551 A). We do not detect significant emission…
We present the properties of intracluster medium (ICM) in the cool core of the massive cluster of galaxies Abell 1835 obtained with the data by $ Chandra$ $X$-$ray$ $Observatory$. We find distinctive spiral patterns with the radius of 70…
The Abell 1689 galaxy cluster has recently become a subject of intensive study. Thanks to its intermediate redshift (z=0.183) its mass distribution can be reconstructed using numerous methods including gravitational lensing, galaxy…
Abell 115 exhibits two distinct peaks in the surface brightness distribution. ASCA observation shows a significant temperature variation in this cluster, confirmed by a hardness ratio analysis and spectral fits. A linking region between…
Using a large redshift survey covering 95 square degrees, we demonstrate that the infall region of Abell 2199 contains Abell 2197, one or two X-ray emitting groups, and up to five additional groups identified in redshift surveys. Our survey…
In this letter we present calibrated mass and light profiles of the rich cluster of galaxies Abell 1689 out to 1 $h^{-1}$ Mpc from the center. The high surface density of faint blue galaxies at high redshift, selected by their low surface…
We present a deep X-ray ROSAT/HRI observation of the rich cluster-lens Abell 2390 and the analysis of the gas and matter distribution in the cluster. The X-ray centroid coincides with the location of the central cD galaxy, and the core…
The thermal, chemical, and kinematic properties of the potentially multi-phase circum/inter-galactic medium at the virial radii of galaxy clusters remain largely uncertain. We present an X-ray study of Abell 2246 and GMBCG…
