Can Radio Source Heating Offset the Cooling Flow (A2052)?

• Total energy output of the radio source, including the work done on compressing the gas is 5/2 PV = ergs

• With kT = 3 keV and = 42 Msun/yr, Lcool = 3 x 1043 erg/s.

• If the repetition rate of the radio source is 108 yr (as with Perseus and A2597), E/t for the radio source is 3 x 1043 erg/s.
