Scientific paper

The evidences of the excess absorption at the cluster center have recently been reported for cooling flow clusters. If these are correct, the cooling flow model becomes more firmly supported. However, due to the limitation of spectral resolution, energy band, and spatial resolution, the finer measurements of absorption column density distribution were impossible. Here, we propose the AXAF measuremensts the absorption column density distribution at the central region of several cooling flow clusters, in order to estimate the mass of cooled material and test the ccoling flow model. To determine the column density finely, we utilize the back-illuminated CCD.
