The effect of cooling and preheating on the X-ray properties of clusters of galaxies
The effect of cooling and preheating on the X-ray properties of clusters of galaxies
We calculate X-ray properties of present-day galaxy clusters from hydrodynamical cosmological simulations of the ΛCDM cosmology and compare these with recent X-ray observations. Results from three simulations are presented, each of which uses the same initial conditions: Non-radiative, a standard adiabatic, non-radiative model; Radiative, a radiative model that includes radiative …
