  • Copied from Ezawa et al. 2001 ... Spacelab 2 (Ponman et al. 1990) and Spartan 1 (Kowalski et al. 1993) showed that the ICM temperature was mostly uniform, but a significant concentration of Fe around 1 solar is present toward the cluster center.... A BBXRT observation showed almost a constant Fe abundance at $ \sim 0.5$ solar in the central 10' region (Arnaud et al. 1992). The BeppoSAX data showed the abundance distribution within a radius of 20' (De Grandi, Molendi 2000) and indicated a reduction of the Fe abundance within 4' from the cluster center due to ``resonance scattering'' of the Fe-Ka (Molendi et al. 1998). This interpretation was, however, questioned by Dupke and Arnaud (1999). The surface brightness distribution to a radius of 80' was studied by Schwarz et al. (1992) and Ettori et al. (1998) based on the ROSAT PSPC data...
