Scientific paper

Data are presented from a HEAO 1 scanning observation of the Virgo cluster in December 1977. The L-shell iron lines at 1.1 keV have been observed in the spectrum of this source. The iron abundance derived is consistent with previous determinations from the 6.7-keV line. The HEAO data also indicate that the source is extended with FWHM of about 1 deg of arc.
