摘要:

我们分析了英仙座星系团的XMM-牛顿数据,结果显示它达到了$\sim$ 1 Mpc,或者大约是维里半径的一半。利用类H Si的Lyalpha线和类He Fe的S/Ka线的通量比,利用APEC等离子体程序v2.0.1,计算了团内介质(ICM)的Si/Fe和S/Fe丰度比。线比的温度依赖性限制了导出的丰度比的系统不确定性。英仙座星系团ICM的Si/Fe和S/Fe没有径向梯度。根据Lodders(2003)的太阳丰度表,冷核外的Si/Fe和S/Fe比的排放加权平均值分别为0.91 +- 0.08和0.93 +- 0.10(太阳单位)。这些比例表明,大部分铁是由超新星Ia合成的。我们收集了星系K带光度,计算了ICM中Fe和Si的质量与K带光度的比值、铁质光比(IMLR)和硅质光比(SMLR)。在$\sim$ 1 Mpc范围内,累积IMLR和SMLR随半径增加而增加。利用朱雀星的西北和东向数据,我们还计算出IMLR为$\sim$ 1.8 Mpc,或大约为维里半径。我们将SMLR限制在这个半径范围内,并讨论了星团中恒星初始质量函数的斜率。使用累积IMLR配置文件,我们讨论了过去的超新星Ia率。

英文摘要:

We analyzed XMM-Newton data of the Perseus cluster out to $\sim$1 Mpc, or approximately half the virial radius. Using the flux ratios of Lyalpha lines of H-like Si and S to Kalpha line of He-like Fe, the abundance ratios of Si/Fe and S/Fe of the intracluster medium (ICM) were derived using the APEC plasma code v2.0.1. The temperature dependence of the line ratio limits the systematic uncertainty in the derived abundance ratio. The Si/Fe and S/Fe in the ICM of the Perseus cluster show no radial gradient. The emission-weighted averages of the Si/Fe and S/Fe ratios outside the cool core are 0.91 +- 0.08 and 0.93 +- 0.10, respectively, in solar units according to the solar abundance table of Lodders (2003). These ratios indicate that most Fe was synthesized by supernovae Ia. We collected K-band luminosities of galaxies and calculated the ratio of Fe and Si mass in the ICM to K-band luminosity, iron-mass-to-light ratio (IMLR) and silicon-mass-to-light ratio (SMLR). Within $\sim$1 Mpc, the cumulative IMLR and SMLR increase with radius. Using Suzaku data for the northwest and east directions, we also calculated the IMLR out to $\sim$ 1.8 Mpc, or about the virial radius. We constrained the SMLR out to this radius and discussed the slope of the initial mass function of stars in the cluster. Using the cumulative IMLR profile, we discuss the past supernova Ia rate.
