Recent Progress in Modeling the Macro-and Micro-Physics of Radio Jet Feedback in Galaxy Clusters

MA Bourne, HYK Yang - Galaxies, 2023 - mdpi.com
Radio jets and the lobes they inflate are common in cool-core clusters and are known to play
a critical role in regulating the heating and cooling of the intracluster medium (ICM). This is …
