We present observations of two poor clusters, AWM 4 and MKW 4, observed by XMM-Newton. Both systems are relaxed, with little substructure evident in their X-ray halos or galaxy populations. However, their temperature structures are markedly…
We present an X-ray study of the galaxy group or poor cluster MKW 4. Working with XMM data we examine the distribution and properties of the hot gas which makes up the group halo. The inner halo shows some signs of structure, with circular…
The core of the relaxed cluster AWM 4 is characterized by a unique combination of properties which defy a popular scenario for ANG heating of cluster cores. A flat inner temperature profile is indicative of a past, major heating episode…
New X-ray observations with XMM-Newton show a lack of spectral evidence for large amounts of cooling and condensing gas in the centers of galaxy clusters believed to harbour strong cooling flows. The paper reexplores the cooling flow…
(Abridged) We present an analysis of the mass and entropy profiles of three poor clusters (A1991, A2717 and MKW9) observed with XMM-Newton. The clusters have similar temperatures (kT=2.65, 2.53 and 2.58 keV), and similar redshifts (0.04 < z…
We present AGN feedback in the interesting cases of two groups: AWM 4 and NGC 5044. AWM 4 is characterized by a combination of properties which seems to defy the paradigm for AGN heating in cluster cores: a flat inner temperature profile…
We present a temperature map and a temperature profile of the central part (r < 20' or 1/4 virial radius) of the Coma cluster. We combined 5 overlapping pointings made with XMM/EPIC/MOS and extracted spectra in boxes of 3.5' X 3.5'. The…

We present a detailed X-ray study of the intracluster medium (ICM) of the nearby, cool-core galaxy cluster Abell 478, with Chandra and XMM observations. Using a wavelet smoothing hardness analysis, we derive detailed temperature maps of…
We present joint Suzaku and Chandra observations of MKW4. With a global temperature of 1.6 keV, MKW4 is one of the smallest galaxy groups that have been mapped in X-rays out to the virial radius. We measure its gas properties from its…
New X-ray observations with XMM-Newton show a lack of spectral evidence for large amounts of cooling and condensing gas in the centers of galaxy clusters believed to harbour strong cooling flows. Here, we explore these diagnostics of the…

We present results on the spectroscopic analysis of XMM-Newton EPIC data of the central 0.5/h_50 Mpc regions of the clusters of galaxies Coma, A1795 and A3112. The temperature of the hot intracluster gas as determined by modeling the 2 - 7…

We present an analysis of a 40 ksec Chandra observation of the galaxy group AWM 5. It has a small ($\sim8$ kpc) dense cool core with a temperature of $\sim1.2$ keV and the temperature profile decreases at larger radii, from $\sim3.5$ keV…
