Using the full, three-dimensional potential of galaxy cluster halos (drawn from an N-body simulation of the current, most favored cosmology), the distribution of the X-ray emitting gas is found by assuming a polytropic equation of state and…
We present a systematic study of the hot gas distribution in the outer regions of regular clusters using ROSAT PSPC data. Outside the cooling flow region, the beta-model describes the observed surface brightness closely, but not precisely.…
The thermodynamic properties of the intracluster medium (ICM) at the outskirts of galaxy clusters provide valuable insights into the growth of the dark matter halo and the heating of the ICM. Considering the results of the soft X-ray…
While hot ICM in galaxy clusters makes these objects powerful X-ray sources, the cluster's outskirts and overdense gaseous filaments might give rise to much fainter sub-keV emission. Cosmological simulations show a prominent "focusing"…
Clusters of galaxies are the largest organized structures in the Universe. They are important cosmological probes, since they are large enough to contain a fair sample of the materials in the Universe, but small enough to have achieved…
We present herein a systematic X-ray analysis of blue galaxy-clusters at $z=0.84$ discovered by the Subaru telescope. The sample consisted of 43 clusters identified by combining red-sequence and blue-cloud surveys, covering a wide range of…
We present high resolution X-ray spectra of 14 putative cooling-flow clusters of galaxies obtained with the Reflection Grating Spectrometer on XMM-Newton. The clusters in the sample span a large range of temperatures and mass deposition…
We present the results of spectroscopic observations of galaxies associated with the diffuse X-ray emitting structure discovered by Zappacosta et al. (2002). After measuring the redshifts of 161 galaxies, we confirm an overdensity of…
We have performed a uniform analysis of 79 clusters of galaxies with the ROSAT HRI and ASCA to study the X-ray structure and evolution of clusters in the redshift range 0.1 < z < 1. We determined the average X-ray temperatures and the…
The outskirts of galaxy clusters host complex interactions between the intra-cluster and circumcluster media. During cluster evolution, ram-pressure stripped gas clumps from infalling substructures break the uniformity of the gas…
The detailed velocity structure of the diffuse X-ray emitting intra-cluster medium (ICM) remains one of the last missing key ingredients in understanding the microphysical properties of these hot baryons and constraining our models of the…
The aim of this work is to study the position of gas-rich and gas-poor galaxy clusters within the large-scale structure and, in particular, their distance to filaments. Our sample is built from 29 of the 34 clusters in the X-ray unbiased…
We present a simulated cluster of galaxies, modeled with a pre-heated intracluster medium, that exhibits X-ray features similar to the `cold fronts' seen in Chandra observations. Mock observations at a particular epoch show factor two…
X-ray surface brightness fluctuations in the core ($650 \times 650$ kpc) region of the Coma cluster observed with XMM-Newton and Chandra are analyzed using a 2D power spectrum approach. The resulting 2D spectra are converted to 3D power…
The warm-hot plasma in cosmic web filaments is thought to comprise a large fraction of the gas in the local Universe. So far, the search for this gas has focused on mapping its emission, or detecting its absorption signatures against…
For the low density filamentary and sheet-like structures in the warm ($\sim 10^4$ to $\sim 10^6$ K) IGM predicted by numerical simulations the resonant line scattering of X-ray background (XRB) photons by He and H-like ions of heavy…
The X-ray background is generated by various classes of objects and variety of emission mechanisms. Relative contribution of individual components depends on energy. The goal is to assess the integral emission of the major components of the…
The two dimensional structure of hot gas in galaxy clusters contains information about the hydrodynamical state of the cluster, which can be used to understand the origin of scatter in the thermodynamical properties of the gas, and to…
We present the first results of our study of a sample of 101 X-ray galaxy groups and clusters, which is volume-limited in each of three X-ray luminosity bins. The aim of this work is to study the properties of the innermost ICM in the cores…
We present a self consistent method to perfom a joint analysis of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich and weak gravitational lensing observation of galaxy clusters. The spatial distribution of the cluster main constituents is described by a perturbative…
