摘要:

星系团中的中央星系可能是冷暗物质(CDM)范式和修正牛顿动力学(MOND)范式之间竞争的关键判别因子。我们调查了天炉座星系团的中央星系NGC 1399的暗晕,其银河系中心距离为80 kpc。该数据库由656个球状星团的径向速度数据组成,这些数据是迄今为止所有星系中最大的样本。我们对非旋转各向同性模型进行了Jeans分析。参数r_s = 50 kpc和rho_s = 0.0065 Msun/pc^3的NFW晕很好地描述了我们的数据,与X射线质量很好地拟合。更大质量的晕也是允许的,这与从星系速度得出的天炉座星系团的质量一致。我们比较这个晕与预期的MOND模型下的各向同性,并发现,需要额外的暗物质的恒星质量的顺序,以获得协议。一个完全径向的无限大球状星团系统将需要改变这一结论。关于清洁发展机制,我们不能得出肯定的结论。为了真正限制集群范围的光晕,需要覆盖更大半径的更多数据。MOND的结果似乎是星系团中MOND仍然需要暗物质这一发现的一个小规模变体。

英文摘要:

Central galaxies in galaxy clusters may be key discriminants in the competition between the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm and modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). We investigate the dark halo of NGC 1399, the central galaxy of the Fornax cluster, out to a galactocentric distance of 80 kpc. The data base consists of 656 radial velocities of globular clusters obtained with MXU/VLT and GMOS/Gemini, which is the largest sample so far for any galaxy. We performed a Jeans analysis for a non-rotating isotropic model. An NFW halo with the parameters r_s = 50 kpc and rho_s = 0.0065 M_sun/pc^3 provides a good description of our data, fitting well to the X-ray mass. More massive halos are also permitted that agree with the mass of the Fornax cluster as derived from galaxy velocities. We compare this halo with the expected MOND models under isotropy and find that additional dark matter on the order of the stellar mass is needed to get agreement. A fully radial infinite globular cluster system would be needed to change this conclusion. Regarding CDM, we cannot draw firm conclusions. To really constrain a cluster wide halo, more data covering a larger radius are necessary. The MOND result appears as a small-scale variant of the finding that MOND in galaxy clusters still needs dark matter.
