A Chandra Archival Study of the Temperature and Metal Abundance Profiles in Hot

چکیده
We present the analysis of the temperature and metallicity profiles of 12 galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.1–0.3 selected from the Chandra archive with at least ∼ 20, 000 net ACIS counts and kT > 6 keV. We divide the sample between 7 Cooling-Core (CC) and 5 Non-Cooling-Core (NCC) clusters according to their central cooling time. We find that single power-laws can describe properly both the temperature and metallicity profiles at radii larger than 0.1r180 in both CC and NCC systems, showing the NCC objects steeper profiles outwards. A significant deviation is only present in the inner 0.1r180. We perform a comparison of our sample with the De Grandi & Molendi BeppoSAX sample of local CC and NCC clusters, finding a complete agreement in the CC cluster profile and a marginally higher value (at ∼ 1σ) in the inner regions of the NCC clusters. The slope of the power-law describing kT (r) within 0.1r180 correlates strongly with the ratio between the cooling time and the age of the Universe at the cluster redshift, being the slope > 0 and τc/τage . 0.6 in CC systems.

Numerical Study of turbulent free convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties in the presence of magnetic field
In this research, turbulent MHD convection of liquid metal with constant and variable properties is investigated numerically. The finite volume method is applied to model the fluid flow and natural convection heat transfer in a square cavity. The fluid flow and heat transfer were simulated and compared for two cases constant and variable properties. It is observed that for the case variable pro...

Context. The origin and evolution of the intracluster medium (ICM) are still not fully understood. A better understanding is not only interesting in its own right, but it is also important for modeling hierarchical structure growth and for using cluster surveys to determine cosmological parameters. Aims. To determine if there exists any evidence for evolution in the temperature or iron abundanc...

Nowadays, light weight and high strength metals are being used in various industries such as automotive and aerospace. Using aluminum-magnesium alloys is an efficient way to reduce the weight of a specific part. These alloys have poor formability in room temperature thus they should be formed at elevated temperature. Warm hydroforming and hot metal gas forming are conventional methods to form ...
