MNRAS313, 21, 2000) • The cool component appear to be associated with the cD galaxy, rather than with cooling portion of the ICM. Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

(1999) - Makishima et al (2001) - Hot emission from the cluster core was mistaken for the cool emission. - The central potential “dimple” was not properly considered. CF rate with ASCA (M0 /yr) Reconfirmed with Chandra and XMM-Newton CF rate before ASCA (M0 /yr) A good example will be given by the next speaker 10 100 Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

  8. 2f. The ASCA view of a cD cluster -- “Double-beta” and “2T” (Ikebe et al. ApJ, 525, 58,1999) A hierarchical potential is formed by the cluster and the cD galaxy. An isothermal hot ICM fills the entire potential well. A two-phase region is produced within the central potential dimple, by an admixture of metal-rich cool plasma.

  9. 3. Physics in the “Post-CF” Era 3a. Conclusion from Makishima et al. (2001) Through the ASCA study, we have arrived at a novel view on central regions of galaxy clusters. It describes the region around a cD galaxy as a site of significant and active evolution, where plenty of heavy elements are produced, a self-gravitating core develops, the stellar component condensates to the center, and the liberated energy is deposited onto the X-ray emitting plasmas. The scenario makes a sharp contrast to the previous view which emphasized the role of radiative plasma cooling. Novel X-ray information to be available with Chandra, XMM-Newton, and hopefully the rebuilt ASTRO-E will be utilized for further examination of our scenario.

Simple-minded considerations Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

  10. Evolution? High z Low z 3b. A simple idea (Makishima 1994) - ICM, DM, and galaxies have ~ the same specific energy. - Since alaxies have much lower specific entropy than ICM, the free energy will be transferred from galaxies to ICM. - Galaxies will lose energy and fall to the cluster center. Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

  11. Radial IMLR profiles IMLR Centaurus 0.01 A1060 3D radius (kpc) 1e-3 1e-4 20 50 100 200 300 3c. Supporting evidence - In angular extent, stars < DM < ICM -- Energy of the galaxies was transferred to the ICM. - Evidence for gradual galaxy mergers in the cluster center -- Dynamical energy of galaxies was extracted, and was deposited on the ICM. --> Poster #17. “The Dark Group Candidate, RXJ 0419+2225” by Kawaharada et al. - The central decrease in Iron-Mass-to-Light -Ratio (IMLR) -- Galaxies gradually fell to the center while ejecting metals. - The O-profile is flatter than the Fe-profile -- Early SNe II occurred over an extended region, while subsequent SNe Ia occurred closer to the center.

  12. 3d. Numerical estimates - The expected galaxy-to-ICM energy transfer rate ; -dE/dt ~ NpRi2 n mpv3(Sazazin 1988, p.152) ~ 2x1044(N/300) (Ri /10kpc)2(n/10-3) (v/500 kms-1)3 erg/s (N=galaxy number; Ri= interaction radius; n=ICM density; v=galaxy velocity dispersion) - The intra-cluster magnetic fields are easily “pushed away” by moving galaxies that are good electrical conductors. This makes Ri ~ DM halo of each galaxy. - The available total dynamical energy in galaxies; E ~ 5x1062 (Mgal /1014M0) (v/500 kms-1)2ergs E/(dE/dt) ~ 80 Gyr Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

  13. Galaxy motion/rotation Magnetic field lines Reconnection sites Hot phase Cool phase 3c. A speculative view -- the “cD corona” - Ordered magnetic fields separate the hot and cool phases. - Galaxies’ kinetic energy -->MHD turbulence -->reconnection -->plasma heating & particle acceleration - The loop-like structure stabilizes the heating/cooling. Cooling Flow, 31 May 2003

  14. The recovery mission ASTRO-E2 will be launched in 2005. • - The XRS (D measures the expected ICM turbulence. • The HXD (10-600 keV) searches for particle acceleration. • The XIS (CCD camera) studies the ICM heating process. The first improved version of the M-5 rocket has been launched successfully on 2003 May 9, putting “Sample-Return” mission into an interplanetary orbit. 4. The Prospect for ASTRO-E2 We are re-building the Hard X-ray Detector (HXD).

  15. Conclusion - Using ASCA, we have pointed out for the first time that the CF hypothesis needs a significant revision. - The view has been reinforced by XMM-Newton and Chandra. - We propose that the dynamical energy in the galaxy motion is dissipated onto the ICM. - ASTRO-E2 will open the new era of such post-CF physics.
