One of the insteresting results of Chandra and XMM-Newton observatories is the discovery of sharp structures in the X-ray surface brightness of galaxy clusters. These structures (a.k.a. cold fronts) are likely associated with the contacted discontinuities formed when a hot gas flows over a colder gravitationally bound gas cloud. ...

SPT-CLJ2344-4243 shows a strong cool core with a potential mass deposition rate of ~3000 Msun/yr derived from the X-ray luminosity. ... The spectral analysis of the deep XMM-Newton observation of the Phoenix cluster found an average mass-deposition rate between 210 and 620 Msun/yr for the gas in the temperature range 0.15-3.0 keV (subject to calibration uncertainties). ...
