caption_attribution_description: English: These four galaxy clusters were part of a large survey of over 300 clusters used to investigate dark energy, the mysterious energy that is currently driving the accelerating expansion of the Universe. In these composite images, X-rays from Chandra (purple) have been combined with optical light from Hubble and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (red, green, and blue). Researchers used a novel technique that takes advantage of the observation that the outer reaches of galaxy clusters, the largest structures in the universe held together by gravity, show similarity in their X-ray emission profiles and sizes.
context_page_description: RX J1347.5–1145 is one of the most massive galaxy clusters known discovered in X-rays with ROSAT. As a result, it is also one of the most X-ray-luminous because of its hot gas content. The object resides roughly 5 billion light-years away from the Solar System in the constellation of Virgo. Redshift was noted as z=0.451 with an X-ray luminosity of 10⁴⁵ ergs s⁻¹ in a paper from 2002. In 2013, one study found eight cases of the same object resulting from the intense gravitational bending of light, which makes it possible to identify a series of remote galaxies located inside the galaxy cluster with calculations from the photometric method between 5.5 and 7.5. That study made use of data from Cluster Lensing and Supernova survey with Hubble as well as other sources. The colors in the galaxy cluster are known to correspond with the level of brightness, or the number of electrons trapped in the examined wavelength range of the cluster, with the colors Red, Orange, and yellow as light, Blue-Green, Green-Medium-Light, Blue, and Violet dark, and is considered one of the brightest objects that is known by X-ray.

  The brightest galaxy inside RX J1347.5-1145 is known to be GALEX J134730.-114509 elliptical trainer. The temperature along with the entropy maps are known to show cool, entropy gasses trailing the subcluster in a southwestern trail, which is known to be consistent with core shredding.  There were also conclusions of the overall gas density, temperature, and metallicity are combined together into a agreement, along with a hot intracluster medium with its extension in the southeast along with a little indication of two cD galaxies located within the cluster.
