Description

Observational surveys seeking to measure evolution in the incidence and properties of cool cores in galaxy clusters have obtained seemingly contradictory results. Some claim to detect evolution. Others find no evolution. Reconciling these observations requires a closer look at how cool cores are defined and the physics that governs their characteristics.
