CO in cooling flow of clusters of galaxies

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The results of a CO line survey in central cluster galaxies with cooling flows are presented.

Description

Cold molecular gas is detected with the IRAM 30m telescope, through CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) emission lines in 6-10 among 32 galaxies. The corresponding gas masses are between 3x10^8^ and 4x10^10^M_{sun}.

These results are in agreement with recent CO detections by Edge (2001MNRAS.328..762E). A strong correlation between the CO emission and the H{alpha} luminosity is also confirmed. Cold gas exists in the center of cooling flow clusters and these detections may be interpreted as evidence of the long searched for very cold residual of the hot cooling gas.
