Planck Constraints on Turbulence in the Coma Cluster

Turbulence within the intracluster medium (ICM) influences galaxy cluster thermodynamics and virialisation, contributing to non-thermal pressure support and impacting hydrostatic mass estimates.

Turbulence within the intracluster medium (ICM) influences galaxy cluster thermodynamics and virialisation, contributing to non-thermal pressure support and impacting hydrostatic mass estimates. Characterising this turbulence through thermodynamic fluctuations remains…
