Magnetic fields have been observed in galaxy clusters with strengths of the order of $sim mu$G. The non-thermal pressure exerted by magnetic fields also contributes to the total pressure in galaxy clusters and can in turn affect the estimates of the gas mass fraction, $f_{gas}$. In this paper, we have considered a central magnetic field strength of $5mu$G, motivated by observations and simulations of galaxy clusters. The profile of the magnetic field has also been taken from the results obtained from simulations and observations. The role of magnetic field has been taken into account in inferring the gas density distribution through the hydrostatic equilibrium condition (HSE) by including the magnetic pressure. We have found that the resultant gas mass fraction is smaller with magnetic field as compared to that without magnetic field. However, this decrease is dependent on the strength and the profile of the magnetic field. We have also determined the total mass using the NFW profile to check for the dependency of $f_{gas}$ estimates on total mass estimators. From our analysis, we conclude that for the magnetic field strength that galaxy clusters seem to possess, the non-thermal pressure from magnetic fields has an impact of $approx 1~%$ on the gas mass fraction of galaxy clusters. However, with upcoming facilities like Square Kilometre Array (SKA), it can be further expected to improve with more precise observations of the magnetic field strength and profile in galaxy clusters, particularly in the interior region.
We use cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to investigate how the inclusion of physical processes relevant to galaxy formation (star formation, metal-line cooling, stellar winds, supernovae and feedback from Active Galactic Nuclei, AGN) change th
We present a new determination of the concentration-mass relation for galaxy clusters based on our comprehensive lensing analysis of 19 X-ray selected galaxy clusters from the Cluster Lensing and Supernova Survey with Hubble (CLASH). Our sample spans
(Abridged) We examine the radial entropy distribution and its scaling using 31 nearby galaxy clusters from the Representative XMM-Newton Cluster Structure Survey (REXCESS). The entropy profiles are robustly measured at least out to R_1000 in all syst
In galaxy clusters, the relations between observables in X-ray and millimeter wave bands and the total mass have normalizations, slopes and redshift evolutions that are simple to estimate in a self-similar scenario. We study these scaling relations a
Clusters of galaxies, filled with hot magnetized plasma, are the largest bound objects in existence and an important touchstone in understanding the formation of structures in our Universe. In such clusters, thermal conduction follows field lines, so
