摘要
We present radial profiles of the temperature and metallicity of the cluster of galaxies Abell 2052 obtained with XMM-Newton. The temperature is rising from 2 keV in the core of the cluster up to similar to 3 keV around 9'. The iron abundance profile as derived from single-temperature models shows a dip in the center of the cluster. The dip turns into a peak when multi-temperature models are used to fit the central 1'. This result is a dramatic example of so-called 'Fe bias'. The use of multi-temperature models is necessary in this cluster to obtain accurate abundance values.
