Scientific paper

The advent of the Chandra X-ray Observatory enables us to study the intracluster medium (ICM) in clusters of galaxies with superb spatial resolution. Chandra has revealed the dynamics of substructures in the central region of clusters; in some clusters sharp contact surfaces between the cold gas in merging subcluster cores and the hot ICM have been observed. Another important result from Chandra is the discovery of complex X-ray structures in the central regions of cooling flow clusters with radio sources. I review these observations, and introduce related works.
