XMM-Newton observations of the Perseus Cluster I: The temperature and surface brightness structure
E. Churazov, W. Forman, C. Jones +1
We present preliminary results of the XMM-Newton 50 ksec observation of the Perseus cluster. The global east/west asymmetry of the gas temperature and surface brightness distributi…
A High Resolution Study of the Hydra A Cluster with Chandra: Comparison of the Core Mass Distribution with Theoretical Predictions and Evidence for Feedback in the Cooling Flow
L. P. David, P. E. J. Nulsen, B. R. McNamara +5
The cooling flow cluster Hydra A was observed during the orbital activation and calibration phase of the Chandra Observatory. While the X-ray image of the cluster exhibits complex…
Chandra Observations of the Components of Clusters, Groups, and Galaxies and their Interactions
W. Forman, C. Jones, M. Markevitch +2
We discuss two themes from Chandra observations of galaxies, groups, and clusters. First, we review the merging process as seen through the high angular resolution of Chandra. We p…
A Flux Limited Atlas of Galaxy Cluster Temperature Maps
R. Hank Donnelly, C. Jones, W. Forman +2
An atlas of gas temperature maps is presented for a flux limited catalog of galaxy clusters. The sample of clusters is based on the Edge et al. (1990) sample, with the inclusion of…
X-ray emission from the stellar population in M32
M. Revnivtsev, E. Churazov, S. Sazonov +2
Using Chandra observations, we study the X-ray emission of the stellar population in the compact dwarf elliptical galaxy M32. The proximity of M32 allows one to resolve all bright…
Chandra X-ray observations of the 3C295 cluster core
S. W. Allen, G. B. Taylor, P. E. J. Nulsen +7
We examine the properties of the X-ray gas in the central regions of the distant (z=0.46), X-ray luminous cluster of galaxies surrounding the powerful radio source 3C 295, using ob…
