So far, we have a set of ten realisations for two different cosmologies. The figure shows the comparison of simulated results with a sample of measurements in Abell clusters. The absolute values of Faraday rotation measurements (Kim et al. 1991) vs. radius in units of the Abell radius are shown as points. Obviously, the dispersion increases towards the cluster centre. The solid curves mark the median (red) and the 25- and 75-percentiles (black) of the measurements. The blue lines are the medians obtained from simulated cluster samples starting with a low (dotted), medium (dashed) and high (dash-dotted) initial magnetic field. |
So far, we have a set of ten realisations for two different cosmologies. Each of these clusters have been simulated starting with different initial magnetic field strengths and orientations. This leads to more than 100 simulated, magnetized galaxy clusters. If you are interested in working with these cluster catalog, please contact Klaus Dolag. |
