Scientific paper

Gas clouds under the influence of gravitation in thermodynamic equilibrium
cannot be isothermal due to the Dufour effect, the energy flux induced by
density gradients. In galaxy clusters this effect may be responsible for most
of the "cooling flows" instead of radiative cooling of the gas.
