Scientific paper

We propose to obtain ACIS imagery of the cluster MS2137.3-2353. We will measure the soft X-ray absorption due to accumulated cold gas within the cluster. The amount and spatial distribution of the cold gas will be compared with the emission from cooling material to determine whether the absorbing cold gas could have condensed out of the flow. Detection of a significant column of absorbing gas distributed throughout the cooling region would demonstrate that cooling flows deposit most of their material in cold clouds. We will attempt to measure the redshifted O K edge of the cold gas. This measurement would provide definitive evidence that the cold, absorbing gas lies within the cluster.
