X ray clusters are conventionally divided into two classes: "cool core" (CC) and "non cool core" (NCC) objects, on the basis of the observational properties of their central regions. Recent results have shown that the cluster population is bimodal (Cavagnolo et al. 2009). We want to understand whether the observed distribution of clusters is due to a primordial division into two distinct classes rather than to differences in how these systems evolve across cosmic time. We systematically search the ICM of NCC clusters in a subsample of the B55 flux limited sample of clusters for regions which have some characteristics typical of cool cores, namely low entropy gas and high metal abundance We find that most NCC clusters in our sample host regions reminiscent of CC, i. e. characterized by relative low entropy gas (albeit not as low as in CC systems) and a metal abundance excess. We have dubbed these structures "cool core remnants", since we interpret them as what remains of a cool core after a heating event (AGN giant outbursts in a few cases and more commonly mergers). We infer that most NCC clusters have undergone a cool core phase during their life. The fact that most cool core remnants are found in dynamically active objects provides strong support to scenarios where cluster core properties are not fixed "ab initio" but evolve across cosmic time.
The Megaparsec-scale Gas-sloshing Spiral in the Remnant Cool Core Cluster Abell 1763
本文对红移z = 0.231的大质量星系团Abell 1763进行了多波长研究。对19.6 ks钱德拉存档观测的图像分析显示，在团内介质（ICM）中，团簇范围内的螺旋状表面亮度增强。虽然这样的螺旋被理解为形成具有晃动强冷芯（SCC）的簇，但包括螺旋顶点的气体具有中等熵（$\sim$ 110 keV cm $^{2}$）和冷却时间（$\sim$ 6.8 Gyr），表明在整个螺旋形成过程中发生芯破裂。两个由系统中第二和第三等级的星系主导的子星系团沿着一条平行于主星系团ICM的伸长轴的线。这两个子系统似乎都是沿着先前发现的星系团间的灯丝下降的，并且都被认为是负责启动破坏性核心晃动的扰动者的候选者。动力学分析表明，正在发生的相对径向速度为$\sim$ 1800 km s $^{-1}$。Abell 1763星系团中最明亮的星系团具有高的视向速度（v $_{pec}$ $\sim$ 650 km s $^{-1}$），并拥有一个强大的（P $_{1.4}$ $\sim$ 10 $^{26}$ W Hz $^{-1}$）弯曲双叶射电源，可能是由合并中诱导的相对大体积ICM流形成的。SCC破坏的集群合并模型调用低碰撞参量作为核心转换所需的条件。与此相反，在阿贝尔1763年发生的高角动量事件表明，离轴合并在建立非冷核心集群人口比以前假设的发挥更大的作用。
