Scientific paper

The presence of dust grains in the intergalactic medium is still an open question. If they exist in the intracluster medium, the intergalactic dust grains are heated mainly by collisions with ambient X-ray emitting hot electrons, and give off emission in infrared bands. At the same time, they are destroyed via collisions with impinging ions. The infrared instruments on the current and future missions are capable of detecting the intergalactic dust emission. For 117 clusters of galaxies, taking into account the properties, we explored the possibility of detecting the intergalactic dust grains with Spitzer Space Telescope, AKARI, Herschel, and SPICA.
