X-ray scaling properties of early-type galaxies

We present an analysis of 39 X-ray luminous early-type galaxies observed with the ROSAT PSPC. Using multicomponent spectral and spatial fits to these data, we have measured halo abundance, temperature, luminosity and surface brightness profile. We compare these measurements to similar results from g...
