Cluster Turbulence: Simulation Insights
  Cluster media are dynamical, not static; observational evidence suggests they are turbulent. High-resolution simulations of the intracluster media (ICMs) and of idealized, similar media help us understand the complex physics and astrophysics involved. We present a brief overview of the physics behind ICM turbulence and outline the processes that control its development. High-resolution, compressible, isothermal MHD simulations are used to illustrate important dynamical properties of turbulence that develops in media with initially very weak magnetic fields. The simulations follow the growth of magnetic fields and reproduce the characteristics of turbulence. These results are also compared with full cluster simulations that have examined the properties of ICM turbulence.
