摘要:

在X射线和引力透镜观测中确定的星系团质量之间存在着长期的差异,Abell 1689就是一个研究得很好的例子。在这项工作中,我们利用了180 ks的钱德拉X射线观测和一个新的弱引力研究的基础上,哈勃太空望远镜马赛克覆盖中央1.8 Mpc × 1.4 Mpc的质量差异。在早期的X射线分析中,非常圆形的表面亮度被推断为Abell 1689是球对称的,并处于流体静力平衡状态,与此相反,硬度比图分析揭示了一个规则的和对称的出现在集群东北部的冷核心加上一些子结构的主要集群。引力透镜质量模型支持Abell 1689是由一个主要的团簇,这可能是一个维里化的集群,加上一些子结构的解释。为了避免子结构发射X射线引起的并发症和错误解释,我们将其排除在肿块重建之外。仅比较常规主要部分的X射线和透镜质量分布,表明两种方法之间没有显著差异,并且获得的质量分布在可以从X射线重建质量的整个范围内是一致的(约为100 μ m)。1百万pc)。获得的集群质量约。875 kpc由X射线单独得到的是6.4 ± 2.1 x 10^14太阳质量,而在相同半径内的弱透镜质量是8.6 ± 3.0 x 10^14太阳质量。

英文摘要:

There is a long-standing discrepancy between galaxy cluster masses determined from X-ray and gravitational lensing observations of which Abell 1689 is a well-studied example. In this work we take advantage of 180 ks of Chandra X-ray observations and a new weak gravitational study based on a Hubble Space Telescope mosaic covering the central 1.8 Mpc x 1.4 Mpc to eliminate the mass discrepancy. In contrast to earlier X-ray analyses where the very circular surface brightness has been inferred as Abell 1689 being spherically symmetric and in hydrostatic equilibrium, a hardness ratio map analysis reveals a regular and symmetric appearing main clump with a cool core plus some substructure in the North Eastern part of the cluster. The gravitational lensing mass model supports the interpretation of Abell 1689 being composed of a main clump, which is possibly a virialized cluster, plus some substructure. In order to avoid complications and mis-interpretations due to X-ray emission from the substructure, we exclude it from the mass reconstruction. Comparing X-ray and lensing mass profiles of the regular main part only, shows no significant discrepancy between the two methods and the obtained mass profiles are consistent over the full range where the mass can be reconstructed from X-rays (out to approx. 1 Mpc). The obtained cluster mass within approx. 875 kpc derived from X-rays alone is 6.4 plus/minus 2.1 x 10^14 solar masses compared to a weak lensing mass of 8.6 plus/minus 3.0 x 10^14 solar masses within the same radius.
