摘要:

我们搜索和表征的投影分布的星系的宽视场CCD图像中观察到的77个附近的星系团的宽视场邻近星系团巡天(WINGS)的子结构。该样品在红移范围0.04<z<0.07内的X射线通量是完整的。我们搜索子结构的WINGS集群与DEDICA,自适应内核程序。我们测试的蒙特卡罗模拟的观察帧的程序,并确定检测到的结构的可靠性。DEDICA在55个簇的字段中识别至少一个可靠的结构。其中40个星团在相同的红移下共有69个子结构(子结构的红移估计来自颜色-星等图)。具有子集群的集群的比例(73%)高于大多数研究。子星系团的存在会影响最亮星系团的相对光度。在L ~ 10^11.2L_Sun范围内,我们观测到的子星系团光度的微分分布与宇宙学模拟中子结构微分质量函数的理论预测是一致的.

英文摘要:

We search for and characterize substructures in the projected distribution of galaxies observed in the wide field CCD images of the 77 nearby clusters of the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey (WINGS). This sample is complete in X-ray flux in the redshift range 0.04<z<0.07. We search for substructures in WINGS clusters with DEDICA, an adaptive-kernel procedure. We test the procedure on Monte-Carlo simulations of the observed frames and determine the reliability for the detected structures. DEDICA identifies at least one reliable structure in the field of 55 clusters. 40 of these clusters have a total of 69 substructures at the same redshift of the cluster (redshift estimates of substructures are from color-magnitude diagrams). The fraction of clusters with subclusters (73%) is higher than in most studies. The presence of subclusters affects the relative luminosities of the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs). Down to L ~ 10^11.2 L_Sun, our observed differential distribution of subcluster luminosities is consistent with the theoretical prediction of the differential mass function of substructures in cosmological simulations.
