Caption: Figure 4.

A schematic illustration of the gas flows in A3667. The cool, low-entropy gas associated with the displaced main core (or, alternatively, the core of the disturber subcluster) is shown in blue, while the hot, high-entropy ICM of the main cluster is shown in red. White arrows indicate the inferred directions of the bulk gas motion, including the rotation of the cool gas. The viewing direction is from the bottom of the figure. Alt text: A color schematic of the merging scenario in A3667.
