How do x-ray measurements help us measure the amount of dark matter in galaxy clusters?
A) The gravity of dark matter causes intracluster gas to be heated to very high temperatures, and the higher the temperature, the stronger the x-ray emission we will detect from the gas. B) Dark matter absorbs x-rays, so we can map the dark matter distribution by looking for absorption lines in x-ray spectra. C) Collisions between dark matter particles emit x-rays, allowing us to map dark matter with x-ray images.
