MAPPING THE HOT GAS IN CENTAURUS CLUSTER


ABSTRACT

We propose to perform the mapping observation of the outer region of the Centaurus Cluster. The main purpose is to determine the distribution of different heavy elements, such as Fe, Si, S, and so on, to study the metal enrichment process of the ICM. Centaurs Cluster is one of the X-ray brightest cluster (except for Virgo) with its hot gas temperature below 4 keV, which gives large equivalent widths of emission lines. The observation will provide high quality map of temperature and abundances of the ICM in Centaurus. We propose to observe the outer region of Centaurs Cluster.
