Density ρ (top) and temperature T (bottom) profiles as a function of radius for three typical ICM models (Ghirardini et al. 2019; McCourt et al. 2013; Simionescu et al. 2011). Only the range with decreasing temperature is shown, until R200. The grey shaded areas highlight radii for which the X-IFU will collect less than two million photons in the 0.2–12 keV energy range during a 2-Ms observation.
