A Survey of Hot Gas in the Universe
Abstract
A large fraction of the baryons and most of the metals in the Universe remain unaccounted. Their kinematic signatures hold critical insights to the processes of galaxy formation in extended group halos, galaxy groups, and the cosmic web. We present why grating spectrometers are essential instruments for future X-ray missions.
