ROSAT HRI observations of IRAS P09104+4109: a massive cooling flow
A. C. Fabian, C. S. Crawford
Abstract
A ROSAT HRI image of the hyperluminous infrared galaxy IRAS P09104+4109 shows extended X-ray emission peaked around the central galaxy in a profile characteristic of a cooling flow. The inferred soft X-ray luminosity is comparable to that detected with ASCA. The ASCA spectrum is well fit by a cooling flow spectrum, indicating a mass cooling rate of about 1000 Msunpyr. The cooling flow dominates the total luminosity of the surrounding cluster. Any contribution from a hidden AGN in the host galaxy to either the total ASCA spectrum or the HRI image is small.
