X-ray observations of the galaxy cluster PKS 0745-191: To the virial radius, and beyond

摘要:

我们测量X射线发射星系团PKS 0745-191与朱雀,确定径向分布的密度,温度,熵,气体分数,和质量的外围。这些测量首次超出了维里半径,提供了关于团簇组装和团簇内扩散介质的新信息,达到~1.5 r_200,(r_200 ~ 1.7 Mpc ~ 15 ')。发现温度从0.3-1 r_200降低约70%。我们还看到了一个平坦的熵轮廓附近的维里半径,并考虑这对流体静力平衡的假设推导质量估计时的影响。我们将这些观测结果放在模拟和分析模型的背景下,以更好地了解星团外围的非引力物理学。

英文摘要:

We measure X-ray emission from the outskirts of the cluster of galaxies PKS 0745-191 with Suzaku, determining radial profiles of density, temperature, entropy, gas fraction, and mass. These measurements extend beyond the virial radius for the first time, providing new information about cluster assembly and the diffuse intracluster medium out to ~1.5 r_200, (r_200 ~ 1.7 Mpc ~ 15'). The temperature is found to decrease by roughly 70 per cent from 0.3-1 r_200. We also see a flattening of the entropy profile near the virial radius and consider the implications this has for the assumption of hydrostatic equilibrium when deriving mass estimates. We place these observations in the context of simulations and analytical models to develop a better understanding of non-gravitational physics in the outskirts of the cluster.
