AGN Feedback in Groups and Clusters of Galaxies
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback stands for the dramatic impact that a supermassive black hole can make on its environment. It has become an essential element of models that describe the formation and evo...

Constraining Gas Motions in the Intra-Cluster Medium
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 c...

Astrophysics with the Spatially and Spectrally Resolved Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effects
In recent years, observations of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect have had significant cosmological implications and have begun to serve as a powerful and independent probe of the warm and hot gas that pervad...

X-Ray Spectroscopy of Galaxy Clusters: Beyond the CIE Modeling
X-ray spectra of galaxy clusters are dominated by the thermal emission from the hot intracluster medium. In some cases, besides the thermal component, spectral models require additional components associated, ...

Resonant Scattering of X-ray Emission Lines in the Hot Intergalactic Medium
While very often a hot intergalactic medium (IGM) is optically thin to continuum radiation, the optical depth in resonant lines can be of order unity or larger. Resonant scattering in the brightest X-ray emiss...

The Cluster Abell 85 and its X-ray Filament Revisited by Chandra and XMM-Newton
We have observed with XMM-Newton the extended 4 Mpc filament detected by the ROSAT PSPC south east of the cluster of galaxies Abell 85. We confirm the presence of an extended feature and find that the X-ray em...
