Cold fronts by merging of shocks.
BIRNBOIM Y., KESHET U. and HERNQUIST L.
Abstract (from CDS):
As a demonstration of this effect, we use 1D simulations of clusters and show that shock-induced CFs form when perturbations such as explosions or mergers occur near the cluster's centre. Perturbations at a cluster's core induce periodic merging between the virial shock and outgoing secondary shocks. These collisions yield a distinctive, concentric, geometric sequence of CFs which trace the expansion of the virial shock.
