Rost, A. M., Nuza, S. E., Stasyszyn, F., Kuchner, U., Hoeft, M., Welker, C., …Yepes, G. (2024). The three hundred project: thermodynamical properties, shocks and gas dynamics in simulated galaxy cluster filaments and their surroundings. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 527(1), Article stad3208. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad3208

Using cosmological simulations of galaxy cluster regions from THE THREE HUNDRED project we study the nature of gas in filaments feeding massive clusters. By stacking the diffuse material of filaments throughout the cluster sample, we measure average...

The Three Hundred project: Galaxy groups do not survive cluster infall (2022)
Journal Article

Galaxy clusters grow by accreting galaxies as individual objects, or as members of a galaxy group. These groups can strongly impact galaxy evolution, stripping the gas from galaxies, and enhancing the rate of galaxy mergers. However, it is not clear...
