Cluster temperature maps. Contours show ROSAT PSPC brightness; gray scale shows ASCA temperatures. Regions (sectors, boxes, or their combination, delineated by dotted lines in the nonobvious places) are numbered and their temperatures with 90% confidence intervals (including systematics) are shown in the lower panels. Dotted horizontal lines in lower panels show emission‐weighted average temperatures either in the annulus or over the whole cluster; dotted vertical lines separate annuli. Point sources excluded or fitted separately are shown as blank circles, but some of them are not shown for clarity.
