Efficient shocks-heating of the inner cooling flow region would have caused overheating of the rest of the ICM, leading to its ejection from the group. Heating by mixing, that was found to be much more efficient than turbulent-heating and shocks-heating, hence, rescues the outer ICM of NGC 5813 from its predestined fate according to cooling flow feedback scenarios that are based on heating by shocks.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-04-29T08:08:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "intracluster medium", "cooling flow galaxy group ngc", "inner cooling flow region", "cooling flow feedback scenarios", "hot bubbles" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150407754S" } } }
