X-ray evidence for multiphase hot gas with nearly solar Fe abundances in the brightest groups of galaxies.
BUOTE D.A.
Abstract (from CDS):
Thus we have shown that the very subsolar Fe abundances and Si/Fe enhancements obtained from most previous studies within r∼100kpc of galaxy groups are an artefact of fitting isothermal models to the X-ray spectra, which also has been recently demonstrated for the brightest elliptical galaxies. Owing to the importance of these results for interpreting X-ray spectra, in an appendix we use simulated ASCA observations to examine in detail the `Fe bias' and `Si bias' associated with the spectral fitting of ellipticals, groups and clusters of galaxies.
