Structures of Regular Clusters
•Bahcall (1977) describes distributions as truncated isothermal distributions:
•
•Where f(r) is the projected distribution normalized to 1 at r=0, and C is a constant that makes N(r) = 0 at some radius.  Results in steepening distribution in outer regions vs. pure isothermal soultion.
•R1/2 = 150-400 kpc (220 kpc for Coma)
