As the largest virialized structures in the universe, galaxy clusters continue to grow and
accrete matter from the cosmic web. Due to the low gas density in the outskirts of clusters …

Until recently, only about 10% of the total intracluster gas volume had been studied with high
accuracy, leaving a vast region essentially unexplored. This is now changing and a wide …

Galaxy clusters are the most massive gravitationally bound structures in the Universe. They
grow by accreting smaller structures in a merging process that produces shocks and …

Context. Inferences about dark matter, dark energy, and the missing baryons all depend on
the accuracy of our model of large-scale structure evolution. In particular, with cosmological …

We search the Planck data for a thermal Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (tSZ) signal due to gas
filaments between pairs of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) taken from the Sloan Digital Sky …

One of the advantages of the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) system aboard Suzaku is its
low and stable non-X-ray background (NXB). In order to make the best use of this …

Studies of the diffuse x-ray–emitting gas in galaxy clusters have provided powerful
constraints on cosmological parameters and insights into plasma astrophysics. However …

We report the first statistical detection of X-ray emission from cosmic web filaments in
ROSAT data. We selected 15 165 filaments at 0.2< z< 0.6 ranging from 30 Mpc to 100 Mpc …

The hot intra-cluster medium (ICM) permeating galaxy clusters and groups is not pristine, as
it has been continuously enriched by metals synthesised in Type Ia (SNIa) and core …

Four decades ago, the firm detection of an Fe-K emission feature in the X-ray spectrum of
the Perseus cluster revealed the presence of iron in its hot intracluster medium (ICM). With …
