Radial density profiles of intracluster gas derived from the RDH profiles (solid lines) and the superimposed β models (open squares). The parameters (﹩\alpha _{0}﹩, β, ﹩r_{c}/ r_{0}﹩) are: (a) (5, 0.40, 0.86), (b) (10, 0.74, 0.85), and (c) (20, 1.56, 0.92). For comparison, the NFW predicted results (dotted lines) are also shown with ﹩\alpha =\alpha _{0}﹩. The horizontal scales are ﹩r/ r_{0}﹩ and ﹩r/ r_{s}﹩ for the RDH and NFW profiles, respectively.
