摘要:

在这里,我们讨论的星系团的X射线特性的光学选择在红序列星系团巡天(RCS)观察钱德拉卫星,在红移0.6 < z < 1.2。我们的目的是评估光学选择的高z星系团的演化阶段,从他们的ICM漫发射进行光谱分析。我们还研究了活动星系核在它们周围的分布。对扣除背景的光谱进行了分析,并与一个单一的温度模型拟合,以测量平均ICM温度,X射线测辐射热光度和Fe丰度的典型半径之间的200和350 kpc。我们还分析了RCS团簇场中的点源数密度和空间分布随X射线通量的变化。我们检测到发射的大部分集群,除了三个,我们只有边缘检测在~3西格玛。我们发现RCS团簇的L-T关系的归一化比X射线选择团簇的L-T关系的归一化低约2倍。我们确认,在所检测到的对象中的铁丰度是一致的X射线选择集团在相同的红移。我们还发现了一个过量的低光度AGN对中心的集群。

英文摘要:

Here we discuss the X-ray properties of clusters of galaxies optically selected in the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS) observed with the Chandra satellite, at redshifts 0.6 < z < 1.2. We intended to assess the evolutionary stage of optically selected high-z clusters of galaxies, performing a spectral analysis of the diffuse emission from their ICM. We also investigated the distribution of AGN in their surroundings. The background subtracted spectra were analyzed and fitted with a single temperature model to measure average ICM temperature, X-ray bolometric luminosity and Fe abundance within typical radii between 200 and 350 kpc. We also analyzed the point source number density and spatial distribution in the RCS clusters fields as a function of the X-ray flux. We detected emission for the majority of the clusters, except for three, for which we have only marginal detection at ~3 Sigma. We find that the normalization of the L-T relation for RCS clusters is a factor of ~2 lower than the one for X-ray selected clusters. We confirm that the Fe abundance in the detected objects is consistent with that of X-ray selected clusters at the same redshift. We also found an excess of low-luminosity AGN towards the center of the clusters.
