The detection of hot intergalactic gas in the NGC 3607 group of galaxies with the Einstein satellite

We have detected extended X-ray emission around the galaxies NGC 3607, NGC 3605, and NGC 3608 in the group TG 39a = G49 using the IPC aboard the Einstein satellite. We argue that this emission is due to thermal bremsstrahlung from a hot, intergalactic gas; this gas sits in the potential well of the...
