[HTML][HTML] Feedback from active galactic nuclei in galaxy groups

D Eckert, M Gaspari, F Gastaldello, AMC Le Brun… - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
The co-evolution between supermassive black holes and their environment is most directly

Turbulent heating in galaxy clusters brightest in X-rays

I Zhuravleva, E Churazov, AA Schekochihin, SW Allen… - Nature, 2014 - nature.com
Abstract The hot (107 to 108 kelvin), X-ray-emitting intracluster medium (ICM) is the
dominant baryonic constituent of clusters of galaxies. In the cores of many clusters, radiative …
