Extended X-ray study of M49: The frontier of the Virgo cluster (2019)
Journal Article
Su, Y., Kraft, R. P., Nulsen, P. E. J., Jones, C., Maccarone, T. J., Mernier, F., Lovisari, L., Sheardown, A., Randall, S. W., Roediger, E., Fish, T. M., Forman, W. R., & Churazov, E. (2019). Extended X-ray study of M49: The frontier of the Virgo cluster. Astronomical Journal, 158(1), Article 6. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-3881/ab1d51

The M49 group, residing outside the virial radius of the Virgo cluster, is falling onto the cluster from the south. We report results from deep XMM-Newton mosaic observations of M49. Its hot gas temperature is 0.8 keV at the group center and rises to... Read More about Extended X-ray study of M49: The frontier of the Virgo cluster.

Close-up view of an ongoing merger between the NGC 4839 group and the Coma cluster - a post-merger scenario (2019)
Journal Article
Lyskova, N., Churazov, E., Zhang, C., Forman, W., Jones, C., Dolag, K., Roediger, E., & Sheardown, A. (2019). Close-up view of an ongoing merger between the NGC 4839 group and the Coma cluster - a post-merger scenario. Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 485(2), 2922-2934. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz597

We study a merger of the NGC 4839 group with the Coma cluster using X-ray observations from the XMM–Newton and Chandra telescopes. X-ray data show two prominent features: (i) a long (∼600 kpc in projection) and bent tail of cool gas trailing (towards...

Constraining Gas Motions in the Intra-Cluster Medium (2019)
Journal Article
Simionescu, A., ZuHone, J., Zhuravleva, I., Churazov, E., Gaspari, M., Nagai, D., Werner, N., Roediger, E., Canning, R., Eckert, D., Gu, L., & Paerels, F. (2019). Constraining Gas Motions in the Intra-Cluster Medium. Space Science Reviews, 215(2), Article 24. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11214-019-0590-1

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 growth and...
