星系团中暗物质速度各向异性剖面的测量

Measurement of the dark matter velocity anisotropy profile in galaxy clusters

Ole Host

摘要:

暗物质粒子形成的光晕贡献了星系团的大部分质量。这些宇宙学结构的形成已经在观测和数值模拟中进行了研究,证实了普遍质量分布的存在。然而,晕中暗物质的动力学行为还没有得到很好的理解。我们已经使用了16个平衡的星系团的观测结果表明,暗物质粒子的随机速度平均沿径向大于沿切向,这种速度各向异性的大小是径向变化的。我们的测量表明,暗物质粒子的集体行为与正常粒子的集体行为有着根本的不同,各向异性速度的径向变化与数值模拟的预测一致。

英文摘要:

Dark matter particles form halos that contribute the major part of the mass of galaxy clusters. The formation of these cosmological structures have been investigated both observationally and in numerical simulations, which have confirmed the existence of a universal mass profile. However, the dynamic behaviour of dark matter in halos is not as well understood. We have used observations of 16 equilibrated galaxy clusters to show that the random velocities of dark matter particles are larger on average along the radial direction than along the tangential, and that the magnitude of this velocity anisotropy is radially varying. Our measurement implies that the collective behaviour of dark matter particles is fundamentally different from that of normal particles and the radial variation of the anisotropy velocity agrees with the predictions of numerical simulation.
