摘要:

我们使用新的朱雀观测PKS 0745-191测量其ICM的热力学性质,并超过r_{200}(达到1.25 r_{200})比以前实现的更好的准确性,由于更准确和更好地理解的背景模型。我们调查和解决以前的朱雀和ROSAT的PKS 0745-191,这被发现主要是由不正确的背景建模在以前的朱雀分析结果之间的紧张关系。我们深入调查影响这一观察的系统误差,目前的温度,密度,熵和气体质量分数的分布达到和超越维里半径。我们发现,熵分布在外围,最初观察到在以前的朱雀分析,但扁平化开始在较大的半径。熵分布的平坦化和我们的质量分析表明,在~17'(~1.9 Mpc)之外,ICM处于流体静力平衡之外,或者存在显著的非热压力支持。

英文摘要:

We use new Suzaku observations of PKS 0745-191 to measure the thermodynamic properties of its ICM out to and beyond r_{200} (reaching 1.25r_{200}) with better accuracy than previously achieved, owing to a more accurate and better understood background model. We investigate and resolve the tensions between the previous Suzaku and ROSAT results for PKS 0745-191, which are found to be principally caused by incorrect background modelling in the previous Suzaku analysis. We investigate in depth the systematic errors affecting this observation, and present temperature, density, entropy and gas mass fraction profiles reaching out to and beyond the virial radius. We find that the entropy profile flattens in the outskirts as originally observed in the previous Suzaku analysis, but that the flattening starts at larger radius. The flattening of the entropy profile and our mass analysis suggests that outside ~17' (~1.9 Mpc) the ICM is out of hydrostatic equilibrium or the presence of significant non-thermal pressure support.
