摘要
We describe the ROSAT analysis of the cD cluster Abell 2199. The spatial distribution is found to be slightly elongated, with an axis ratio of approximate to 0.8 and position angle of approximate to 45 degrees anticlockwise from due North about the cluster centre. The surface brightness profile reveals a significant cooling flow of approximate to 250 M. yr(-1), although a lower mass deposition rate is deduced from the spectral data. The total gas and gravitational masses within a radius of 1.8 Mpc are found to be approximate to 1 x 10(14) Mg and approximate to 5 x 10(14) M. respectively. The implications of these findings are discussed.
