Thermal conduction and reduced cooling flows in galaxy clusters
Conduction may play an important role in reducing cooling flows in galaxy clusters. We analyse a sample of sixteen objects using Chandra data and find that a balance between conduction and cooling can exist in the hotter clusters (T 5 keV), provided the plasma conductivity is close to the unhindered Spitzer value. In the absence of any additional heat sources, a reduced mass inflow must develop...
متن کاملDynamical Friction and Cooling Flows in Galaxy Clusters
We investigate a model of galaxy clusters in which the hot intracluster gas is efficiently heated by dynamical friction (DF) of galaxies. We allow for both subsonic and supersonic motions of galaxies and use the gravitational drag formula in a gaseous medium presented by Ostriker (1999). The energy lost by the galaxies is either redistributed locally or into a Gaussian centered on the galaxy. W...
متن کاملCooling Flows or Heating Flows?
It is now clear that AGN heat cooling flows, largely by driving winds. The winds may contain a relativistic component that generates powerful synchrotron radiation, but it is not clear that all winds do so. The spatial and temporal stability of the AGN/cooling flow interaction are discussed. Collimation of the winds probably provides spatial stability. Temporal stability may be possible only fo...
متن کاملSpectral modeling of magnetohydrodynamic turbulent flows.
We present a dynamical spectral model for large-eddy simulation of the incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations based on the eddy damped quasinormal Markovian approximation. This model extends classical spectral large-eddy simulations for the Navier-Stokes equations to incorporate general (non-Kolmogorovian) spectra as well as eddy noise. We derive the model for MHD flows and show tha...
متن کاملObservations of Galaxy Clusters: Evidence for Modest Cooling Flows
A prediction of the galaxy cluster cooling flow model is that as gas cools from the ambient cluster temperature, emission lines are produced in gas at subsequently decreasing temperatures. Gas passing through 10 K emits in the lines of O VI λλ1032, 1035, and here we report a FUSE study of these lines in three cooling flow clusters, Abell 426, Abell 1795, and AWM 7. No emission was detected from...
