Reproducibility of Non-X-ray Background for the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer aboard Suzaku

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed an X-ray non-X-ray background (NXB) database by collecting XIS events when the dark Earth covers the XIS FOV and found that the count rate of the NXB anti-correlates with the cut-off-rigidity and correlates with the PIN upper discriminator (PIN-UD).

A massive, cooling-flow-induced starburst in the core of a luminous cluster of galaxies

Michael McDonald, +96 more
- 16 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: An exceptionally luminous galaxy cluster that hosts an extremely strong cooling flow and a large star-formation rate implies that a significant fraction of the stars in the central galaxy of this cluster may form through accretion of the intracluster medium, rather than (as is currently thought) assembling entirely via mergers.

THE GROWTH OF COOL CORES AND EVOLUTION OF COOLING PROPERTIES IN A SAMPLE OF 83 GALAXY CLUSTERS AT 0.3 < z < 1.2 SELECTED FROM THE SPT-SZ SURVEY

Michael McDonald, +89 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Chandra X-ray observations of 83 high-redshift (0.3 0.5 ) galaxy clusters were used to study the cooling properties of galaxy clusters and showed that cool cores have been steadily growing over the 8 Gyr spanned by their sample, consistent with a constant cooling flow that is unable to cool below entropies of 10 keV cm^2 and, instead, accumulates in the cluster center.
