a Catalog (ue) of Cooling Flows
Abstract
The author describes the analysis of a sample of 106 clusters of galaxies observed by the Einstein Observatory with particular emphasis on the effects of statistical and systematic error on the derived physical parameters. Of these 106 clusters, 43 have central cooling times <2×1010 years and hence are designated "cooling flows". Mass accretion rates are in the range ≡1 - 500 M_sun;yr-1.
