The Intracluster Light and Its Link with the Dynamical State of the Host Group/Cluster: The Role of the Halo Concentration

We investigate the role of halo concentration in the formation of intracluster light (ICL) in galaxy groups and clusters, as predicted by a state-of-the-art semianalytic model of galaxy formation, coupled with a set of high-resolution dark-matter-only simulations. The analysis focuses on how the fra...
