  Title: X-RAY STUDY OF MERGING OF SUBSTRUCTURES AND IRON DISTRIBUTION IN VIRGO CLUSTER  


Abstract:
 "Ginga" observation revealed that ICM in the Virgo cluster consists of two
 components corresponding to the two sub-clustering of galaxies, M87 cluster and M49
 cluster. These two subclusters are merging into each other. We propose to observe
 the boundary surface to study the influence of merging to the temperature and metal abundance in ICM.
