Imaging the Hot Intracluster Medium

- Summary
- Metrics

Abstract

Clusters of galaxies contain large amounts of hot, diffuse x—ray emitting gas. Observations of this gas can be used to measure the gas mass, the cluster virial mass, and the cluster morphology. From these measurements. a lower limit to the baryonic mass in clusters, the formation efficiency of galaxies in different environments, and the presence and scale of cluster substructure can be determined.
