Title: The cool stuff in the cores of clusters of galaxies
Abstract:
The massive elliptical galaxies at the centres of about one third of
clusters contain large masses of cold molecular gas and star
formation. This is surrounded by hot intracluster gas with a radiative
cooling time less than a Gyr. Observations and interpretation of these
gases and their interactions will be discussed.
