星系团近期演化的丰度依赖性

Richness Dependence of the Recent Evolution of Clusters of Galaxies

M. Plionis, H. Tovmassian, H. Andernach

摘要:

我们使用z<0.14的ACO星系团样本重新讨论了星系团最近的动力学演化问题,该样本已被选择,使得它不包含具有多个速度分量的星系团,也不包含X射线显示的强烈合并或相互作用的星系团。我们使用的集群动力学状态的代理投影集群椭圆率,速度色散和X射线光度。我们发现这个集群人口,但强烈依赖于集群的丰富度最近的动态演变的迹象。贫星系团似乎正在经历它们的初级维里化阶段,它们的椭圆率随着红移的增加而增加,速率为de/dz ~ 2.5,而富星系团则表现出相反方向的椭圆率演化(de/dz ~ -1.2),这可能是由于二次坍缩。考虑到ACO星团星表的星等限制性,我们没有发现星团X射线光度的显著变化,而速度色散随红移的减小而增大,与星团的丰度无关,速率为dsigma/dz ~ -1700 km/sec。

英文摘要:

We revisit the issue of the recent dynamical evolution of clusters of galaxies using a sample of ACO clusters with z<0.14, which has been selected such that it does not contain clusters with multiple velocity components nor strongly merging or interacting clusters, as revealed in X-rays. We use as proxies of the cluster dynamical state the projected cluster ellipticity, velocity dispersion and X-ray luminosity. We find indications for a recent dynamical evolution of this cluster population, which however strongly depends on the cluster richness. Poor clusters appear to be undergoing their primary phase of virialization, with their ellipticity increasing with redshift with a rate de/dz ~ 2.5, while the richest clusters show an ellipticity evolution in the opposite direction (with de/dz ~ -1.2), which could be due to secondary infall. When taking into account sampling effects due to the magnitude-limited nature of the ACO cluster catalogue we find no significant evolution of the cluster X-ray luminosity, while the velocity dispersion increases with decreasing redshift, independent of the cluster richness, at a rate dsigma/dz ~ -1700 km/sec.
