Physics of cosmic plasmas from high angular resolution X-ray imaging of galaxy clusters
Abstract
The paper presents possibilities for measuring several fundamental properties of cosmic plasmas via high angular resolution, high collecting area, low background X-ray imaging of galaxy clusters, building upon some trailblazing measurements performed by the Chandra X-ray Observatory.
