X-ray properties of groups of galaxies

JS Mulchaey - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2000 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract ROSAT observations indicate that approximately half of all nearby groups of
galaxies contain spatially extended X-ray emission. The radial extent of the X-ray emission …

Theoretical models of the halo occupation distribution: Separating central and satellite galaxies

Z Zheng, AA Berlind, DH Weinberg… - The Astrophysical …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
The halo occupation distribution (HOD) describes the relation between galaxies and dark

A new method for galaxy cluster detection. I. The algorithm

MD Gladders, HKC Yee - The Astronomical Journal, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
Numerous methods for finding clusters at moderate to high redshifts have been proposed in

a framework for studying the physics of galaxy formation and as an ingredient in halo …

The nature and space density of fossil groups of galaxies

LR Jones, TJ Ponman, A Horton, A Babul… - Monthly Notices of …, 2003 - academic.oup.com
We describe the properties of a sample of galaxy groups with very unusual distributions of
galaxy luminosities. The most extreme example has an X-ray luminosity similar to that of the …
