摘要:

我们给出了在IRAC浅星系团巡天的7 ° ^2区域中277个候选星系团的星系团自相关函数,其\le z为0.25 \le 1.5。我们在整个星系团样本中发现了强烈的聚集,正如对这些大质量结构的预期。具体来说,在<z>= 0.5时,我们发现相关长度为r_0 = 17.40^{+3.98}_{-3.10} h^-1 Mpc,这与拉斯坎帕纳斯远距离星系团巡天(Las Campanas Distant Cluster Survey)的结果非常吻合,后者是唯一的非定域测量。在较高的红移,<z>= 1时,我们发现强团簇仍然存在,相关长度为r_0=19.14^{+5.65}_{-4.56} h^-1 Mpc。与高分辨率宇宙学模拟的比较表明,这些星系团的晕质量为\sim 10^{14} Msun,这一结果得到了样本子集动力学质量估计的支持。在一个稳定的星团图像中,这些星团到今天将演变成大质量(10^{15} Msun)的星团。

英文摘要:

We present the galaxy cluster autocorrelation function of 277 galaxy cluster candidates with 0.25 \le z \le 1.5 in a 7 deg^2 area of the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey. We find strong clustering throughout our galaxy cluster sample, as expected for these massive structures. Specifically, at <z> = 0.5 we find a correlation length of r_0 = 17.40^{+3.98}_{-3.10} h^-1 Mpc, in excellent agreement with the Las Campanas Distant Cluster Survey, the only other non-local measurement. At higher redshift, <z> = 1, we find that strong clustering persists, with a correlation length of r_0=19.14^{+5.65}_{-4.56} h^-1 Mpc. A comparison with high resolution cosmological simulations indicates these are clusters with halo masses of \sim 10^{14} Msun, a result supported by estimates of dynamical mass for a subset of the sample. In a stable clustering picture, these clusters will evolve into massive (10^{15} Msun) clusters by the present day.
