We use gas-dynamical simulations of galaxy clusters to compare their X-ray and strong lensing properties. Special emphasis is laid on mass estimates. The cluster masses range between 6 x 10^14 solar masses and 4 x 10^15 solar masses, and…
We present a comparison of optical and X-ray properties of galaxy clusters in the northern sky. We determine the recovery rate of X-ray detected clusters in the optical as a function of richness, redshift and X-ray luminosity, showing that…
We investigate the dynamical evolution of clusters of galaxies and their observational consequences during off-center mergers, explicitly considering the relaxation process between ions and electrons in intracluster medium by N-body and…
We present results from a study of the X-ray cluster population that forms within the CLEF cosmological hydrodynamics simulation, a large N-body/SPH simulation of the Lambda CDM cosmology with radiative cooling, star formation and feedback.…
In this paper we use state-of-the-art N-body hydrodynamic simulations of a cosmological volume of side 100Mpc to produce many galaxy clusters simultaneously in both the standard cold dark matter (SCDM) cosmology and a cosmology with a…
We study the projection effects on various observables of clusters of galaxies at redshift near zero, including cluster richness, velocity dispersion, X-ray luminosity, three total mass estimates (velocity-based, temperature-based and…
We present the X-ray properties and scaling relations of a flux-limited morphology-unbiased sample of 12 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at redshift around 0.2 based on XMM-Newton observations. The scaled radial profiles are characterized by…
We present results from a systematic investigation of the X-ray properties of a sample of moderate redshift (0.3<z<0.6) galaxy groups. These groups were selected not by traditional X-ray or optical search methods, but rather by an…
We test the ability of equilibrium galactic disk and one-zone interstellar medium models to describe the physical and emission properties of quasar hosts, submillimeter galaxies, and Lyman-alpha emitters at z>~6. The size, line widths, star…
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…
Searches for Lyman-alpha emission lines are among the most effective ways to identify high-redshift galaxies. They are particularly interesting because they probe not only the galaxies themselves but also the ionization state of the…
The first stars and quasars are known sources of hard ionizing radiation in the first billion years of the Universe. We examine the joint effects of X-rays and hard UV radiation from such first-light sources on the hydrogen and helium…
We consider the properties of soft X-ray emission lines in the reprocessed emission from a photoionized accretion disc. Observations of these lines will be important in determining the ionization state and metallicity of the innermost…
Using stacked emission line flux measurements of cool circumgalactic gas (CGM) in lower-mass galaxies ($10^{9.0} \le M_*/M_\odot \le 10^{10.2} $), we measure the dependence of the emission characteristics on orientation relative to the disk…
We use cosmological simulations to study the X-ray ionisation and heating of the intergalactic medium by an early population of accreting black holes. By considering observational constraints from the X-ray background, we find an upper…
A merger of clusters naturally drives shocks with Mach number $\mathscr{M}\lesssim 3$ in the intra-cluster medium (ICM). This process creates several distinct signatures, including sharp surface brightness "edges", temperature, and gas…
We present results on the X-ray properties of clusters and groups of galaxies, extracted from a large hydrodynamical simulation. We used the GADGET code to simulate a LambdaCDM model within a box of 192 Mpc/h on a side, with 480^3 dark…
We study the effect that non-equilibrium chemistry in dynamical models of collapsing molecular cloud cores has on measurements of the magnetic field in these cores, the degree of ionization, and the mean molecular weight of ions. We find…
We measure the evolution of the X-ray luminosity-temperature (L_X-T) relation since z~1.5 using a sample of 211 serendipitously detected galaxy clusters with spectroscopic redshifts drawn from the XMM Cluster Survey first data release…
The nonthermal phenomena in clusters of galaxies are considered in the context of the hierarchical model of cosmic structure formation by accretion and merging of the dark matter (DM) substructures.Accretion and merging processes produce…
