The aim of this experiment was to try and extend the initial–final mass relation (IFMR) to somewhat higher masses, potentially challenging the Chandrasekhar limit currently thought to be around 1.38 M⊙. We discovered a particularly interesting white dwarf in the direction of the young ∼150 Myr old cluster Messier 47 (NGC 2422). All Gaia indicators (proper motion, parallax, location in the Gaia color–magnitude diagram) suggest that it is a cluster member. Its spectrum, obtained from Gemini-South, yields a number of anomalies: it is a DB (helium-rich atmosphere) white dwarf, it has a large magnetic field (2.5 MG), is of high mass (∼1.06 M⊙), and its colors are very peculiar—particularly the redder ones (r, i, z and y), which suggests that it may have a late-type companion. This may be the only magnetized, detached binary white dwarf with a non-degenerate companion of any spectral type known in or out of a star cluster. If the white dwarf is a cluster member, as all indicators suggest, its progenitor had a mass just over 6 M⊙. It may, however, be telling an even more interesting story than the one related to the IFMR, one about the origin of stellar magnetic fields, SNe I, and gravitational waves from low-mass stellar systems."}],"citation":{"ista":"Richer HB, Kerr R, Heyl J, Caiazzo I, Cummings J, Bergeron P, Dufour P. 2019.

Our use of short-wavelength photometry affords us an exceedingly clear view of stellar motions into the very center of the crowded core, yielding proper motions for >50,000 stars in the central 2′. We model the velocity dispersion profile of the cluster using an isotropic Jeans model. The density distribution is taken as a central IMBH point mass added to a combination of King templates. We individually model the general low-mass cluster objects (main sequence/giant stars), as well as the concentrated populations of heavy binary systems and dark stellar remnants. Using unbinned likelihood model fitting, we find that the inclusion of the concentrated populations in our model plays a crucial role in fitting for an IMBH mass. The concentrated binaries and stellar-mass black holes (BHs) produce a sufficient velocity dispersion signal in the core so as to make an IMBH unnecessary to fit the observations. We additionally determine that a stellar-mass BH retention fraction of 8.5% becomes incompatible with our observed velocities in the core."}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1538-4357"],"issn":["0004-637X"]},"doi":"10.3847/1538-4357/ab0e6d","citation":{"ama":"Mann CR, Richer H, Heyl J, et al.

However, we still lack sufficiently accurate modeling of binary formation channels to obtain strong constraints, or to identify sub-populations. One promising formation mechanism that could result in different black hole properties is binaries merging within the accretion disks of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Here we show that the black holes' orbital alignment with the AGN disks preferentially selects heavier black holes. We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of orbital alignment with AGN disks, and find that AGNs harden the initial black hole mass function. Assuming an initial power law mass distribution M−βbh, we find that the power law index changes by Δβ∼1.3, resulting in a more top-heavy population of merging black holes. This change is independent of the mass of, and accretion rate onto, the supermassive black hole in the center of the AGN. Our simulations predict an AGN-assisted merger rate of ∼4Gpc−3yr−1. With its hardened mass spectra, the AGN channel could be responsible for 10−50% of gravitational-wave detections.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X","1538-4357"]},"article_processing_charge":"No","title":"AGN disks harden the mass distribution of stellar-mass binary black hole mergers","publisher":"American Astronomical Society","_id":"17567","date_updated":"2024-09-18T13:26:34Z","scopus_import":"1","user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"05","oa_version":"Published Version","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab16e3"}],"article_number":"122","publication":"The Astrophysical Journal","publication_status":"published","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ab16e3","oa":1,"date_published":"2019-05-10T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2024-09-05T12:11:39Z","issue":"2","type":"journal_article","intvolume":" 876","year":"2019","status":"public","extern":"1","day":"10","author":[{"last_name":"Yang","full_name":"Yang, Y.","first_name":"Y."},{"full_name":"Bartos, I.","first_name":"I.","last_name":"Bartos"},{"first_name":"Zoltán","full_name":"Haiman, Zoltán","last_name":"Haiman","id":"7c006e8c-cc0d-11ee-8322-cb904ef76f36"},{"last_name":"Kocsis","first_name":"B.","full_name":"Kocsis, B."},{"first_name":"Z.","full_name":"Márka, Z.","last_name":"Márka"},{"last_name":"Stone","full_name":"Stone, N.

Programs such as the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (CRTS) or the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) surveyed millions of objects for several years, allowing variability studies on large statistical samples. The inspection of ≈250 k quasars in CRTS resulted in a catalog of 111 potentially periodic sources, put forward as supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) candidates. A similar investigation on PTF data yielded 33 candidates from a sample of ≈35 k quasars. Working under the SMBHB hypothesis, we compute the implied SMBHB merger rate and we use it to construct the expected gravitational wave background (GWB) at nano-Hz frequencies, probed by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs). After correcting for incompleteness and assuming virial mass estimates, we find that the GWB implied by the CRTS sample exceeds the current most stringent PTA upper limits by almost an order of magnitude. After further correcting for the implicit bias in virial mass measurements, the implied GWB drops significantly but is still in tension with the most stringent PTA upper limits. Similar results hold for the PTF sample. Bayesian model selection shows that the null hypothesis (whereby the candidates are false positives) is preferred over the binary hypothesis at about 2.3σ and 3.6σ for the CRTS and PTF samples respectively. Although not decisive, our analysis highlights the potential of PTAs as astrophysical probes of individual SMBHB candidates and indicates that the CRTS and PTF samples are likely contaminated by several false positives.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X","1538-4357"]},"article_type":"original","quality_controlled":"1","volume":856,"author":[{"last_name":"Sesana","full_name":"Sesana, Alberto","first_name":"Alberto"},{"last_name":"Haiman","id":"7c006e8c-cc0d-11ee-8322-cb904ef76f36","first_name":"Zoltán","full_name":"Haiman, Zoltán"},{"last_name":"Kocsis","full_name":"Kocsis, Bence","first_name":"Bence"},{"last_name":"Kelley","first_name":"Luke Zoltan","full_name":"Kelley, Luke Zoltan"}],"day":"22","intvolume":" 856","year":"2018","status":"public","extern":"1","issue":"1","type":"journal_article","date_created":"2024-09-06T08:06:14Z","oa":1,"date_published":"2018-03-22T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aaad0f","publication":"The Astrophysical Journal"},{"acknowledgement":"We thank the referee for their constructive comments, which have helped improve the quality and clarity of this work.

CR7 is a luminous Lyα emitting galaxy at z = 6.6 that consists of three separated UV-continuum components. Our observations reveal several well-separated components of [C II] emission. The two most luminous components in [C II] coincide with the brightest UV components (A and B), blueshifted by »150 km s−1 with respect to the\r\npeak of Lyα emission. Other [C II] components are observed close to UV clumps B and C and are blueshifted by »300 and ≈80 km s−1 with respect to the systemic redshift. We do not detect FIR continuum emission due to dust with a 3σ limiting luminosity LIR T L d 35 K 3.1 10 = <´ 10 ( ) . This allows us to mitigate uncertainties in the dust-corrected SFR and derive SFRs for the three UV clumps A, B, and C of 28, 5, and 7 M yr−1. All clumps have [C II] luminosities consistent within the scatter observed in the local relation between SFR and L[ ] C II , implying that strong Lyα emission does not necessarily anti-correlate with [C II] luminosity. Combining\r\nour measurements with the literature, we show that galaxies with blue UV slopes have weaker [C II] emission at fixed SFR, potentially due to their lower metallicities and/or higher photoionization. Comparison with hydrodynamical simulations suggests that CR7ʼs clumps have metallicities of 0.1 Z Z 0.2 < < . The observed ISM structure of CR7 indicates that we are likely witnessing the build up of a central galaxy in the early universe through complex accretion of satellites."}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X"],"eissn":["1538-4357"]},"article_processing_charge":"No","keyword":["Space and Planetary Science","Astronomy and Astrophysics","dark ages","reionization","first stars – galaxies: formation – galaxies: high-redshift – galaxies: ISM – galaxies: kinematics and dynamics"],"article_number":"145","oa_version":"Preprint","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.06569"}],"scopus_import":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"12","issue":"2","type":"journal_article","intvolume":" 851","extern":"1","status":"public","year":"2017","oa":1,"date_published":"2017-12-21T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2022-07-07T08:48:04Z","publication":"The Astrophysical Journal","arxiv":1,"publication_status":"published","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/aa9931","quality_controlled":"1","article_type":"original","volume":851,"day":"21","author":[{"first_name":"Jorryt J","full_name":"Matthee, Jorryt J","id":"7439a258-f3c0-11ec-9501-9df22fe06720","last_name":"Matthee","orcid":"0000-0003-2871-127X"},{"full_name":"Sobral, D.","first_name":"D.","last_name":"Sobral"},{"full_name":"Boone, F.","first_name":"F.","last_name":"Boone"},{"first_name":"H.","full_name":"Röttgering, H.","last_name":"Röttgering"},{"last_name":"Schaerer","first_name":"D.","full_name":"Schaerer, D."},{"first_name":"M.","full_name":"Girard, M.","last_name":"Girard"},{"first_name":"A.","full_name":"Pallottini, A.","last_name":"Pallottini"},{"last_name":"Vallini","full_name":"Vallini, L.","first_name":"L."},{"first_name":"A.","full_name":"Ferrara, A.","last_name":"Ferrara"},{"last_name":"Darvish","full_name":"Darvish, B.","first_name":"B."},{"full_name":"Mobasher, B.","first_name":"B.","last_name":"Mobasher"}]},{"article_number":"186","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","month":"12","scopus_import":"1","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.1710.10666","open_access":"1"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","title":"Deep HST imaging in 47 Tucanae: A global dynamical model","date_updated":"2024-04-08T07:04:35Z","_id":"15240","publisher":"American Astronomical Society","external_id":{"arxiv":["1710.10666"]},"keyword":["Space and Planetary Science","Astronomy and Astrophysics"],"article_processing_charge":"No","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Multi-epoch observations with the Advanced Camera Survey and WFC3 on the Hubble Space Telescope provide a unique and comprehensive probe of stellar dynamics within 47 Tucanae. We confront analytic models of the globular cluster with the observed stellar proper motions that probe along the main sequence from just above 0.8–0.1M⊙ as well as white dwarfs younger than 1 Gyr. One field lies just beyond the half-light radius where dynamical models (e.g., lowered Maxwellian distributions) make robust predictions for the stellar proper motions. The observed proper motions in this outer field show evidence for anisotropy in the velocity distribution as well as skewness; the latter is evidence of rotation. The measured velocity dispersions and surface brightness distributions agree in detail with a rotating anisotropic model of the stellar distribution function with mild dependence of the proper-motion dispersion on mass. However, the best-fitting models underpredict the rotation and skewness of the stellar velocities. In the second field, centered on the core of the cluster, the mass segregation in proper motion is much stronger. Nevertheless the model developed in the outer field can be extended inward by taking this mass segregation into account in a heuristic fashion. The proper motions of the main-sequence stars yield a mass estimate of the cluster of \r\n at a distance of 4.7 kpc.

We examine the fate of the black hole binaries in active galactic nuclei, which get trapped in the inner region of the accretion disk around the central supermassive black hole. We show that binary black holes can migrate into and then rapidly merge within the disk well within a Salpeter time. The binaries may also accrete a significant amount of gas from the disk, well above the Eddington rate. This could lead to detectable X-ray or gamma-ray emission, but would require hyper-Eddington accretion with a few percent radiative efficiency, comparable to thin disks.

We suggest that the growth of SMBHs above a few 10^{10} M_sun is prevented by small-scale accretion physics, independent of the properties of their host galaxies or of cosmology. Growing more massive BHs requires a gas supply rate from galactic scales onto a nuclear region as high as >10^3 M_sun/yr. At such a high accretion rate, most of the gas converts to stars at large radii (~10-100 pc), well before reaching the BH. We adopt a simple model (Thompson et al. 2005) for a star-forming accretion disk, and find that the accretion rate in the sub-pc nuclear region is reduced to the smaller value of at most a few M_sun/yr. This prevents SMBHs from growing above ~10^{11} M_sun in the age of the Universe. Furthermore, once a SMBH reaches a sufficiently high mass, this rate falls below the critical value at which the accretion flow becomes advection dominated. Once this transition occurs, BH feeding can be suppressed by strong outflows and jets from hot gas near the BH. We find that the maximum SMBH mass, given by this transition, is between M_{BH,max} ~ (1-6) * 10^{10} M_sun, depending primarily on the efficiency of angular momentum transfer inside the galactic disk, and not on other properties of the host galaxy."}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X","1538-4357"]},"citation":{"ista":"Inayoshi K, Haiman Z. 2016.

However, observations from a very large (∼5 deg2) Lyα narrow-band survey at z = 6.6 show that this is not the case for the most luminous emitters, capable of ionizing their own local bubbles. Here we present follow-up observations of the two most luminous Lyα candidates in the COSMOS field: “MASOSA” and “CR7.” We used X-SHOOTER, SINFONI, and FORS2 on the Very Large Telescope, and DEIMOS on Keck, to confirm both candidates beyond any doubt. We find redshifts of z = 6.541 and z = 6.604 for “MASOSA” and “CR7,” respectively. MASOSA has a strong detection in Lyα with a line width of 386 ± 30 km s−1 (FWHM) and with very high EW0 (>200 Å), but undetected in the continuum, implying very low stellar mass and a likely young, metal-poor stellar population. “CR7,” with an observed Lyα luminosity of 1043.92±0.05 erg s−1 is the most luminous Lyα emitter ever found at z > 6 and is spatially extended (∼16 kpc). “CR7” reveals a narrow Lyα line with 266 ± 15 km s−1 FWHM, being detected in the near-infrared (NIR) (rest-frame UV; β = −2.3 ± 0.1) and in IRAC/Spitzer. We detect a narrow He II 1640 Å emission line (6σ, FWHM = 130 ± 30 km s−1 ) in CR7 which can explain the clear excess seen in the J-band photometry (EW0 ∼ 80 Å). We find no other emission lines from the UV to the NIR in our X-SHOOTER spectra (He II/O III] 1663 Å > 3 and He II/C III] 1908 Å > 2.5). We conclude that CR7 is best explained by a combination of a PopIII-like population, which dominates the rest-frame UV and the nebular emission, and a more normal stellar population, which presumably dominates the mass. Hubble Space Telescope/WFC3 observations show that the light is indeed spatially separated between a very blue component, coincident with Lyα and He II emission, and two red components (∼5 kpc away), which dominate the mass. Our findings are consistent with theoretical predictions of a PopIII wave, with PopIII star formation migrating away from the original sites of star formation.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1538-4357"],"issn":["0004-637X"]},"citation":{"apa":"Sobral, D., Matthee, J.

This code solves the 2D viscous Navier–Stokes equations on a high-resolution moving mesh which shears with the fluid flow, greatly reducing advection errors in comparison with a fixed grid. We perform a series of simulations for binary mass ratios in the range 0.026 ⩽ q ⩽ 1.0, each lasting longer than a viscous time so that we reach a quasi-steady accretion state. In each case, we find that gas is efficiently stripped from the inner edge of the circumbinary disk and enters the cavity along accretion streams, which feed persistent \"mini disks\" surrounding each black hole. We find that for q ≳ 0.1, the binary excites eccentricity in the inner region of the circumbinary disk, creating an overdense lump which gives rise to enhanced periodicity in the accretion rate. The dependence of the periodicity on mass ratio may provide a method for observationally inferring mass ratios from measurements of the accretion rate. We also find that for all mass ratios studied, the magnitude of the accretion onto the secondary is sufficient to drive the binary toward larger mass ratio. This suggests a mechanism for biasing mass-ratio distributions toward equal mass.","lang":"eng"}],"citation":{"ieee":"B. D. Farris, P. Duffell, A. I. MacFadyen, and Z.

These galaxies, selected using 1.18 μm narrowband imaging from the 10 deg2 CFHT-HiZELS survey of the SA 22 hr field, are found in a ∼4 Mpc overdensity of Hα emitters and likely reside in a group/intermediate environment, but not a cluster. We confirm and identify a rich group of star-forming galaxies at z = 0.813 ± 0.003, with 13 galaxies within 1000 km s−1 of each other, and seven within a diameter of 3 Mpc. All of our galaxies are “typical” star-forming galaxies at their redshift, 0.8 ± 0.4 SFR$^*_{z = 0.8}$, spanning a range of specific star formation rates (sSFRs) of 0.2–1.1 Gyr−1 and have a median metallicity very close to solar of 12 + log(O/H) = 8.62 ± 0.06. We measure the spatially resolved Hα dynamics of the galaxies in our sample and show that 13 out of 16 galaxies can be described by rotating disks and use the data to derive inclination corrected rotation speeds of 50–275 km s−1. The fraction of disks within our sample is 75% ± 8%, consistent with previous results based on Hubble Space Telescope morphologies of Hα-selected galaxies at z ∼ 1 and confirming that disks dominate the SFR density at z ∼ 1. Our Hα galaxies are well fitted by the z ∼ 1–2 Tully–Fisher (TF) relation, confirming the evolution seen in the zero point. Apart from having, on average, higher stellar masses and lower sSFRs, our group galaxies at z = 0.81 present the same mass–metallicity and TF relation as z ∼ 1 field galaxies and are all disk galaxies.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1538-4357"],"issn":["0004-637X"]},"citation":{"short":"D.

The continuum is not clearly detected with ground-based spectra, but high wavelength resolution enables the Lyα emission line profile to be determined.

This requires the gas to avoid cooling and to remain at temperatures near T=10^4 K. We show that this condition can be satisfied in the presence of a sufficiently strong primordial magnetic field, which heats the collapsing gas via ambipolar diffusion. If the field has a strength above B = 3.6 (comoving) nG, the collapsing gas is kept warm (T=10^4K) until it reaches the critical density n_crit=10^3 cm^{-3} at which the roto-vibrational states of H_2 approach local thermodynamic equilibrium. H_2-cooling then remains inefficient, and the gas temperature stays near 10^4K, even as it continues to collapse to higher densities. The critical magnetic field strength required to permanently suppress H_2-cooling is somewhat higher than upper limit of approx. 2 nG from the cosmic microwave background (CMB). However, it can be realized in the rare (2-3)-sigma regions of the spatially fluctuating B-field; these regions contain a sufficient number of halos to account for the z=6 quasar BHs."}],"citation":{"ista":"Sethi S, Haiman Z, Pandey K. 2010.

A major difficulty in making the best use of Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (SZ) and X-ray observations of clusters for cosmology is that using X-ray observations it is difficult to measure the temperature distribution and therefore determine the density distribution in individual clusters of galaxies out to the virial radius. Observations with the new generation of SZ instruments are a promising alternative approach. We use clusters of galaxies drawn from high-resolution adaptive mesh refinement cosmological simulations to study how well we should be able to constrain the large-scale distribution of the intracluster gas (ICG) in individual massive relaxed clusters using AMiBA in its configuration with 13 1.2 m diameter dishes (AMiBA13) along with X-ray observations. We show that non-isothermal β models provide a good description of the ICG in our simulated relaxed clusters. We use simulated X-ray observations to estimate the quality of constraints on the distribution of gas density, and simulated SZ visibilities (AMiBA13 observations) for constraints on the large-scale temperature distribution of the ICG. We find that AMiBA13 visibilities should constrain the scale radius of the temperature distribution to about 50% accuracy. We conclude that the upgraded AMiBA, AMiBA13, should be a powerful instrument to constrain the large-scale distribution of the ICG."}],"article_processing_charge":"No"},{"citation":{"ama":"Wang S, Haiman Z, May M.

If the seeds are the ~100 Msol remnant BHs from the first generation of stars, they must be in place well before redshift z=6, and must avoid being ejected from their parent proto-galaxies by the large (few hundred km/s) kicks they suffer from gravitational-radiation induced recoil during mergers with other BHs. We simulate the SMBH mass function at redshift z=6 using dark matter (DM) halo merger trees, coupled with a prescription for the halo occupation fraction, accretion histories, and radial recoil trajectories of the growing BHs. Our purpose is (i) to map out plausible scenarios for successful assembly of the z~6 quasar BHs by exploring a wide region of parameter space, and (ii) to predict the rate of low-frequency gravitational wave events detectable by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) for each such scenario. Our main findings are as follows: (1) ~100 Msol seed BHs can grow into the SDSS quasar BHs without super--Eddington accretion, but only if they form in minihalos by z~30 and subsequently accrete ~60% of the time; (2) the scenarios with optimistic assumptions required to explain the SDSS quasar BHs overproduce the mass density in lower--mass (10^5 to 10^7 Msol) SMBHs by a factor of 100-1000, unless seeds stop forming, or accrete at a severely diminished rates or duty cycles (e.g. due to feedback), at z < 20-30. We also present several successful assembly models and their LISA detection rates, including a \"maximal\" model that gives the highest rate (~30/yr at z~6) without overproducing the total SMBH density.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"The assembly of supermassive black holes at high redshifts","publisher":"American Astronomical Society","_id":"17735","date_updated":"2024-09-26T13:45:27Z"},{"publication":"The Astrophysical Journal","publication_status":"published","fulldoi":"https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/696/2/1640","issue":"2","type":"journal_article","intvolume":" 696","status":"public","extern":"1","year":"2009","oa":1,"date_published":"2009-05-10T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2024-09-06T10:01:31Z","page":"1640-1656","day":"10","author":[{"full_name":"Molnar, Sandor M.","first_name":"Sandor M.","last_name":"Molnar"},{"last_name":"Hearn","full_name":"Hearn, Nathan","first_name":"Nathan"},{"last_name":"Haiman","id":"7c006e8c-cc0d-11ee-8322-cb904ef76f36","first_name":"Zoltán","full_name":"Haiman, Zoltán"},{"last_name":"Bryan","first_name":"Greg","full_name":"Bryan, Greg"},{"last_name":"Evrard","first_name":"August E.","full_name":"Evrard, August E."},{"last_name":"Lake","first_name":"George","full_name":"Lake, George"}],"quality_controlled":"1","article_type":"original","volume":696,"citation":{"mla":"Molnar, Sandor M., et al. “Accretion Shocks in Clusters of Galaxies and Their SZ Signature from Cosmological Simulations.” The Astrophysical Journal, vol. 696, no. 2, American Astronomical Society, 2009, pp. 1640–56, doi:10.1088/0004-637x/696/2/1640.","apa":"Molnar, S.

Kocsis et al. suggest that the Sunyaev–Zel'dovich signal associated with such shocks might be observable with the next generation radio interferometer, ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter Array). We study the three-dimensional distribution of accretion shocks around individual clusters of galaxies drawn from adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) and smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations of ΛCDM (dark energy dominated CDM) models. In relaxed clusters, we find two distinct sets of shocks. One set (\"virial shocks\"), with Mach numbers of 2.5–4, is located at radii 0.9–1.3 Rvir, where Rvir is the spherical infall estimate of the virial radius, covering about 40%–50% of the total surface area around clusters at these radii. Another set of stronger shocks (\"external shocks\") is located farther out, at about 3 Rvir, with large Mach numbers (≈100), covering about 40%–60% of the surface area. We simulate SZ surface brightness maps of relaxed massive galaxy clusters drawn from high-resolution AMR runs, and conclude that ALMA should be capable of detecting the virial shocks in massive clusters of galaxies. More simulations are needed to improve estimates of astrophysical noise and to determine optimal observational strategies.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-637X","1538-4357"]},"article_processing_charge":"No","publisher":"American Astronomical Society","_id":"17771","date_updated":"2024-09-30T09:59:02Z","title":"Accretion shocks in clusters of galaxies and their SZ signature from cosmological simulations","oa_version":"Published Version","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/696/2/1640"}],"scopus_import":"1","month":"05","user_id":"317138e5-6ab7-11ef-aa6d-ffef3953e345","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}]
