Arithmetic with X-ray images of galaxy clusters: effective equation of state for small-scale perturbations in the ICM
We discuss a novel technique of manipulating X-ray images of galaxy clusters to reveal the nature of small-scale density/temperature perturbations in the intracluster medium (ICM). As we show, this technique can be used to differentiate between sound waves and isobaric perturbations in Chandra image...
