(Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4224503Galaxy clusters are collections of galaxies that grow by merging with galaxies or other clusters. Galaxy clusters are predominantly dark matter and a hot plasma called the intracluster medium (ICM), which can be observed through X-ray bright emission...
