Abstract
We present results based on analysis of the currently available 29.86 ks Chandra data on the Bright Group-Centered Galaxy (BGG) NGC 5846 of G50 group. A pair of X-ray cavities have been detected within a radius ? 1 kpc along the North-East and South-West directions. The analysis yielded the average cavity energy, ages and mechanical power equal to ~ 3:1 x 1048 erg, 0:61 x 107 yr and, 3:78 x 1041 erg s-1, respectively. The luminosity of X-ray emitting gas within the cooling radius (20 kpc) was found to be 2.4 x 1041 erg s??1, in agreement with the mechanical cavity power. The ratio of radio luminosity to mechanical cavity power is found to be 10??4. The Bondi accretion rate of the central supermassive black hole (SMBH) is ~ 5:95 x 10-5 M? yr-1 and the black-hole mass derived using the Bondi-accretion rate was found to be ~ 3:74 x 108 M?.
