摘要:

我们使用Chandra数据对26个星系群的样本进行了限制,限制了ICM的中心冷却时间(CCT),并根据其中心冷却时间将这些星系群分为强冷核(SCC)、弱冷核(WCC)和非冷核(NCC)。最亮的星团星系(BCG)的总射电光度是使用射电目录数据和文献获得的,并与CCT进行比较,以了解气体冷却和射电输出之间的联系。我们用2 MASS数据确定了BCG的K波段光度,并用它来约束SMBH的质量,然后将其与射电输出进行比较。我们还测试了BCG光度与整体X射线光度和该组质量之间的相关性。所观察到的冷芯/非冷芯分数组是可比的集群。然而,可以看到显著的差异。对于群集,所有SCC都具有中心温度下降,但对于组,情况并非如此,因为某些SCC具有中心上升的温度曲线。虽然对于集群样本,所有SCC集群都有一个中央无线电源,而只有45%的NCC,对于组样本,所有NCC组都有一个中央无线电源,而SCC组只有77%。对于星系团,有迹象表明射电光度和CCT之间存在着一种负相关的趋势,而这在星系团中是不存在的。在SCC星团中观察到的射电光度与黑洞质量的趋势的迹象是不存在的群体。BCG光度与星团X射线光度/星团质量之间的强相关性对于组而言显著减弱。我们的结论是,有重要的区别集群和集团内的ICM冷却/活动星系核反馈范例。

英文摘要:

Using Chandra data for a sample of 26 galaxy groups, we constrained the central cooling times (CCTs) of the ICM and classified the groups as strong cool-core (SCC), weak cool-core (WCC) and non-cool-core (NCC) based on their CCTs. The total radio luminosity of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) was obtained using radio catalog data and literature, which was compared to the CCT to understand the link between gas cooling and radio output. We determined K-band luminosities of the BCG with 2MASS data, and used it to constrain the masses of the SMBH, which were then compared to the radio output. We also tested for correlations between the BCG luminosity and the overall X-ray luminosity and mass of the group. The observed cool-core/non-cool-core fractions for groups are comparable to those of clusters. However, notable differences are seen. For clusters, all SCCs have a central temperature drop, but for groups, this is not the case as some SCCs have centrally rising temperature profiles. While for the cluster sample, all SCC clusters have a central radio source as opposed to only 45% of the NCCs, for the group sample, all NCC groups have a central radio source as opposed to 77% of the SCC groups. For clusters, there are indications of an anticorrelation trend between radio luminosity and CCT which is absent for the groups. Indications of a trend of radio luminosity with black hole mass observed in SCC clusters is absent for groups. The strong correlation observed between the BCG luminosity and the cluster X-ray luminosity/cluster mass weakens significantly for groups. We conclude that there are important differences between clusters and groups within the ICM cooling/AGN feedback paradigm.
