Abstract

We have performed the wavelet analysis and image reconstructions for six clusters of galaxies observed both at extreme ultraviolet and X-ray energies. The comparison of the profiles of the EUV and X-ray reconstructed images shows that they differ at a very large confidence level in five of the six clusters, and are similar only for the Coma cluster, which is by far the hottest one in the sample.
