摘要：

The results from Suzaku X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) observations of relaxed cluster of galaxies, Abell 2052, are presented. Offset pointing data were used to estimate the Galactic foreground emission in the direction of the cluster. Significant soft X-ray excess emission above this foreground, the intracluster medium emission, and other background components was confirmed and resolved both radially and spectroscopically. This excess can be described either by (a) local variations of known Galactic emission components or by (b) an additional thermal component with a temperature of about 0.2 keV, possibly associated with the cluster. The radial temperature and metallicity profiles of the intracluster medium were measured within similar to 20' in radius (about 60% of the virial radius) from the cluster center. The temperature drops radially to 0.5-0.6 of the peak value at a radius of similar to 15'. The gas-mass-weighted metal abundance averaged over the observed region was found to be 0.21 +/- 0.05 times solar.
