PROBING THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE EARLY-STAGE GALAXY CLUSTER MERGER A1750 by Bulbul, Esra, Randall, Scott W., Bayliss, Matthew, Miller, Eric, Andrade-Santos, Felipe, Johnson, Ryan, Blanton, Elizabeth L., Forman, William R., Jones, Christine, Paterno-Mahler, Rachel, Murray, Stephen S., Sarazin, Craig L., Smith, Randall K., Ezer, Cemile, Miller, Eric D, Bautz, Marshall W.

“…Finally, we find evidence for diffuse, cool ( < 1 keV) gas at large cluster radii (R 200 ) along the filament, which is consistent with the expected properties of the denser, hotter phase of the warm-hot intergalactic medium. Key words: galaxies: clusters: individual (A1750); large-scale structure of universe; X-rays: galaxies: clusters…”
