星系团的超模型分析

Supermodel Analysis of Galaxy Clusters

R. Fusco-Femiano, A. Cavaliere, A. Lapi

摘要:

我们提出了属于冷核和非冷核类别的六个星系团的X射线亮度和温度分布的分析,根据Cavaliere,Lapi和Fusco-Femiano(2009)开发的超级模型(SM)。基于暗物质晕所形成的引力阱,SM直接描述了星系团内等离子体(ICP)的平衡状态,ICP的熵由引力吸积产生的驻波沉积在边界,并由活动星系核合并或爆发产生的向外冲击波注入中心。这里分析的集群集不仅突出了SM在控制径向熵运行的几个ICP参数方面如何简单地代表了主要的二分法冷与非冷核心集群,而且还如何准确地拟合复杂的亮度和温度曲线。对于像A2199和A2597这样的冷核星系团,具有低中心熵的SM直接产生了由向中心下降标记的温度特征峰值曲线,而不需要目前强大的辐射冷却和高质量沉积速率。像A1656这样的非冷核心星团需要一个相当大的中央熵底,而像A2256和更多的A644这样的星团则具有结构化的温度分布,也需要一个明确的底扩展;在这种情况下,SM准确地拟合了观测结果,并表明在这些星团中,ICP只是被合并事件重塑,以残留冷核心的方式。SM还预测,高浓度的暗物质晕应该与外围较平坦的熵分布和较陡的亮度相关;这确实是A1689的情况。

英文摘要:

[abridged] We present the analysis of the X-ray brightness and temperature profiles for six clusters belonging to both the Cool Core and Non Cool Core classes, in terms of the Supermodel (SM) developed by Cavaliere, Lapi & Fusco-Femiano (2009). Based on the gravitational wells set by the dark matter halos, the SM straightforwardly expresses the equilibrium of the IntraCluster Plasma (ICP) modulated by the entropy deposited at the boundary by standing shocks from gravitational accretion, and injected at the center by outgoing blastwaves from mergers or from outbursts of Active Galactic Nuclei. The cluster set analyzed here highlights not only how simply the SM represents the main dichotomy Cool vs. Non Cool Core clusters in terms of a few ICP parameters governing the radial entropy run, but also how accurately it fits even complex brightness and temperature profiles. For Cool Core clusters like A2199 and A2597, the SM with a low level of central entropy straightforwardly yields the characteristic peaked profile of the temperature marked by a decline toward the center, without requiring currently strong radiative cooling and high mass deposition rates. Non Cool Core clusters like A1656 require instead a central entropy floor of a substantial level, and some like A2256 and even more A644 feature structured temperature profiles that also call for a definite floor extension; in such conditions the SM accurately fits the observations, and suggests that in these clusters the ICP has been just remolded by a merger event, in the way of a remnant cool core. The SM also predicts that dark matter halos with high concentration should correlate with flatter entropy profiles and steeper brightness in the outskirts; this is indeed the case with A1689.
