We discovered a conversion error in deriving the expected iron yield 𝒴Fe for Maoz & Graur (2017) values (see gold shaded area in our Fig. 19 in the original paper). Expected yields are evaluated through equation 12 and converted to solar units (see Eq. 11). We adopt the solar abundance measurements by Asplund et al. (2009); under this assumption, the solar iron abundance is Zm, ⊙ = 0.00124; this is the solar iron abundance by mass fraction with respect to the gas mass, namely (ρFe/ρgas). This is the value reported in our Sect. 5.1 and used throughout the paper. However, when we derived 𝒴Fe using the yIa, kIa, yCC, and kCC estimates from Maoz & Graur (2017), we erroneously used Zm, ⊙ = 0.00174, which is the solar iron abundance by mass fraction with respect to the hydrogen mass, (ρFe/ρH), leading to a wrong expected range for the iron yield. The correct estimate for 𝒴Fe is Y Fe , = 3 . 65 1.30 + 1.30 Z $ \mathcal{Y}_{\mathrm{Fe,\odot}}= 3.65^{+1.30}_{-1.30} Z_\odot $.

In the meantime, Freundlich & Maoz (2021) published updated values for Type-Ia supernova (SNIa) rates. Their new estimates provide k Ia = 3 . 1 1.0 + 1.1 × 10 3 M 1 $ k_{\mathrm{Ia}} = 3.1^{+1.1}_{-1.0} \times 10^{-3} \, M_\odot^{-1} $, which leads to Y Fe , = 2 . 34 0.56 + 0.63 Z $ \mathcal{Y}_{\mathrm{Fe,\odot}}= 2.34^{+0.63}_{ -0.56} Z_\odot $. By chance, the new updated value is not very different from the wrong value reported in Ghizzardi et al. (2021), leaving our discussion and main conclusions unchanged.

The last paragraph in Sect. 5.2 should be replaced with: “Recently, it has been shown (see Maoz & Graur 2017 and Friedmann & Maoz 2018) that type Ia SN explosions in galaxy clusters are more frequent than in the field. If, following Maoz & Graur (2017), we assume a SNIa rate per unit mass of k Ia =(5.4±2.3)× 10 3 M 1 $ k_{\rm Ia} = (5.4\pm 2.3) \times 10^{-3} \, M_\odot^{-1} $, we derive Y Fe , = 3 . 65 1.3 + 1.3 Z $ \mathcal{Y}_{\mathrm{Fe,\odot}}= 3.65^{+1.3}_{-1.3} \, Z_\odot $. More recently, Freundlich & Maoz (2021) published updated values for SNIa rates in clusters, k Ia = 3 . 1 1.0 + 1.1 × 10 3 M 1 $ k_{\mathrm{Ia}} = 3.1^{+1.1}_{-1.0} \times 10^{-3} \, M_\odot^{-1} $, which lead to Y Fe , = 2 . 34 0.56 + 0.63 Z $ \mathcal{Y}_{\mathrm{Fe,\odot}}= 2.34^{+0.63}_{-0.56} Z_\odot $ (gold shaded region in Fig. 19). This revised SN rate brings the expected effective yield closer, but it is still well below the measured ones.”

Effective iron yield for the clusters of the sample. The red band is the 68% confidence interval around the mean. The yellow band shows the expected value computed through the SN yields derived from Maoz & Graur (2017) and Renzini & Andreon (2014; see text for details); the gold band represents the expected value derived assuming recent estimates for SNIa rates in galaxy clusters by Freundlich & Maoz (2021).

Figure 19 should be replaced with the one reported here.
