Are X-Ray Atmospheres Heated by Turbulent Dissipation? XRISM Constraints
Abstract We evaluate whether dissipation of turbulence injected into hot cluster atmospheres by jets and bubbles can offset radiative cooling flows. No trends are found between atmospheric velocity dispersion, σ v , and either the ratio of kinetic to thermal energy or jet power over nearly four decades of jet power. Ap...
