Parsec-scale Properties of Brightest Cluster Galaxies

E. Liuzzo, G. Giovannini, M. Giroletti, G. B. Taylor

摘要:

本文报道了在5GHz波段对Abell星系团(距离类<3)中布里渊星系团星系(BCGs)的一个完整样品的VLBI观测结果。结合来自文献的数据,这提供了34个BCGs的秒差距尺度信息。我们对它们的秒差距尺度射电辐射和星团X射线性质的分析表明,冷核星团和非冷核星团中的BCGs之间可能存在二分法。在解析的源中,冷核心星系团中的源倾向于具有双侧秒差距尺度的喷流,而在较不松弛的星系团中的源则主要具有单侧秒差距尺度的喷流。我们认为,这种差异可能是射流和周围介质之间相互作用的结果。在非冷的核心集群的单面结构可能是由于多普勒助推效应的相对论,本质上对称的射流;双面形态在冷的核心集群可能与存在的沉重和温和的相对论射流减慢秒差距尺度。在冷核心星团的BCGs中也发现了周期性活动的证据。

英文摘要:

We present new VLBI observations at 5 GHz of a complete sample of Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) in nearby Abell Clusters (distance class <3). Combined with data from the literature, this provides parsec-scale information for 34 BCGs. Our analysis of their parsec scale radio emission and cluster X-ray properties shows a possible dichotomy between BCGs in cool core clusters and those in non cool core clusters. Among resolved sources, those in cool core clusters tend to have two-sided parsec-scale jets, while those in less relaxed clusters have predominantly one-sided parsec-scale jets. We suggest that this difference could be the result of interplay between the jets and the surrounding medium. The one-sided structure in non cool core clusters could be due to Doppler boosting effects in relativistic, intrinsically symmetric jets; two-sided morphology in cool core clusters is likely related to the presence of heavy and mildly relativistic jets slowed down on the parsec-scale. Evidence of recurrent activity are also found in BCGs in cool core clusters.
