摘要:

巨型射电晕是在某些正在合并的星系团中发现的百万pc大小的源。同步辐射电子被认为是由两个大质量团簇合并引起的等离子体湍流加速的。冷核星系团有一个低温的核心,这可能表明最近没有发生重大的合并。CL1821+643是迄今为止已知的最强冷核星系团之一。令人惊讶的是,我们发现一个巨大的无线电晕的最大线性尺寸为$\sim$ 1.1兆秒差距。我们讨论了集群的无线电和X射线性质的框架内提出的巨型无线电晕模型。如果一个合并是导致无线电发射,尽管存在一个冷的核心,我们建议它应该离轴,或在早期阶段,或一个小的。

英文摘要:

Giant radio halos are Mpc-size sources found in some merging galaxy clusters. The synchrotron emitting electrons are thought to be (re)accelerated by plasma turbulence induced by the merging of two massive clusters. Cool core galaxy clusters have a low temperature core, likely an indication that a major merger has not recently occurred. CL1821+643 is one of the strongest cool core clusters known so far. Surprisingly, we detect a giant radio halo with a largest linear size of $\sim$ 1.1 Mpc. We discuss the radio and X-ray properties of the cluster in the framework of the proposed models for giant radio halos. If a merger is causing the radio emission, despite the presence of a cool-core, we suggest that it should be off-axis, or in an early phase, or a minor one.
