ABSTRACT | |
We propose to observe 3 X-ray luminous clusters which each have over 10^10 Msun of cold molecular gas in their X-ray cool cores. The ALMA velocity and morphology data indicate that the cold gas is disturbed in these object. If, as Hitomi has shown in the Perseus cluster, the cold gas and ICM share the same velocity field, then we shall measure velocity broadening of the soft X-ray emission lines with the XMM RGS. We shall also measure or constrain mass cooling rates of the ICM below 1-2 keV. |
