z>0.1时X射线发光星系团的熵分布

Entropy profiles in X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at z>0.1

摘要:

[摘要]团内气体的熵分布反映了气体的吸积历史和反馈过程,反馈过程提供了除势能外的另一种非引力能。本文研究了Chandra观测到的24个热(kT_{gas} > 6 keV)星系团在红移0.14-0.82范围内不同弛豫状态下的气体熵分布和标度性质。我们恢复的气体密度,温度和熵的轮廓在一个非参数的方式。加入流体静力平衡假设,径向配置文件也得到了从表面亮度的deprojection,允许验证流体静力平衡是否是一个站得住脚的假设,通过与光谱测量比较。我们证实,这是在大于100千秒差距的尺度上的情况下,并讨论在内部区域的非冷却核心集群中观察到的偏差。我们发现,熵的配置文件是非常相似的核心外,可以用简单的幂律斜率为1.0-1.2。我们在0.1 R_{200}处测量了100-500 keV cm ^2的熵级,以及取决于源的弛豫状态的跨越宽范围值(~几个-200 keV cm ^2)的中心平台。为了表征充满活力的中心区域,我们比较的径向行为的气体的温度与温度的暗物质T_{DM}通过估计过剩的能量Δ E = 3/2 k(T_{gas} - T_{DM})。我们指出,Δ E的范围从~ 0在典型的冷却核心集群的几个千电子伏在100千秒差距内的非冷却核心系统。我们还测量了显着的相关性之间的总铁质量和熵的冷却区域外,而在内部区域,他们强烈的反相关。

英文摘要:

[Abridged] The entropy distribution of the intracluster gas reflects both accretion history of the gas and processes of feedback which provide a further non-gravitational energy besides the potential one. In this work, we study the profiles and the scaling properties of the gas entropy in 24 hot (kT_{gas} > 6 keV) galaxy clusters observed with Chandra in the redshift range 0.14-0.82 and showing different states of relaxation. We recover the gas density, temperature and entropy profiles in a non-parametric way. Adding the hydrostatic equilibrium hypothesis, radial profiles are also obtained from the deprojection of the surface brightness, allowing to verify whether the hydrostatic equilibrium is a tenable hypothesis by comparison with the spectral measurements. We confirm that this is the case on scales larger than 100 kpc and discuss the deviations observed in few non-cooling core clusters in the inner regions. We show that the entropy profiles are remarkably similar outside the core and can be described by simple power-laws with slope of 1.0-1.2. We measure an entropy level at 0.1 R_{200} of 100-500 keV cm^2 and a central plateau which spans a wide range of value (~ a few-200 keV cm^2) depending on the state of relaxation of the source. To characterize the energetic of the central regions, we compare the radial behaviour of the temperature of the gas with the temperature of the dark matter T_{DM} by estimating the excess of energy Delta E = 3/2 k(T_{gas}- T_{DM}). We point out that Delta E ranges from ~ 0 in typical cooling-core clusters to few keV within 100 kpc in non-cooling core systems. We also measure a significant correlation between the total iron mass and the entropy outside the cooling region,whereas in the inner regions they anti-correlate strongly.
