Physics of galaxy clusters:

Irina Zhuravleva is working on resonant scattering in strong X-ray lines in clusters of galaxies, which firstly affect the surface brightness profiles and line shapes. In particular she is interested in investigation of anisotropic gas motions using resonant scattering and caused by scattering polarization, which is sensitive to the transverse velocities of gas motions.
