X-ray emission in the Abell 2597 Brightest Cluster Galaxy
0.5-7 keV X-ray surface brightness map of the central brightest cluster galaxy in Abell 2597. The X-ray emission has been smoothed with an adaptive gaussian kernel, and surface brightness isocontours have been overlaid in black. East is left, North is up.
