Galaxy 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...

The first holistic view of minor mergers of galaxy clusters (2019)
Thesis
Sheardown, A. J. (2019). The first holistic view of minor mergers of galaxy clusters. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4221856

Utilising hydrodynamic + N-body simulations, we present the first holistic view of minor mergers of galaxy clusters. A minor merger describes the merging of a main cluster and a less massive subhalo, this could be a subcluster, group or an elliptical...
