Large-scale Motions in the Perseus Galaxy Cluster
read the original abstract
By combining large-scale mosaics of ROSAT PSPC, XMM-Newton, and Suzaku X-ray observations, we present evidence for large-scale motions in the intracluster medium of the nearby, X-ray bright Perseus Cluster. These motions are suggested by several alternating and interleaved X-ray bright, low-temperature, low-entropy arcs located along the east-west axis, at radii ranging from ~10 kpc to over a Mpc. Thermodynamic features qualitatively similar to these have previously been observed in the centers of cool core clusters, and were successfully modeled as a consequence of the gas sloshing/swirling motions induced by minor mergers. Our observations indicate that such sloshing/swirling can extend out to larger radii than previously thought, on scales approaching the virial radius.

XRISM Reveals a Kinematically Coherent Core System of the Nearby Cool-Core Cluster Abell 2199
XRISM observations show the core of Abell 2199 is kinematically coherent with low turbulence, where turbulent heating may offset ~20% of radiative cooling losses.
