摘要:

探测大尺度结构周围受冲击的宇宙气体的热和非热发射是观测的一个挑战,也是了解温热星系际介质物理学的一个独特窗口。在这项工作中,我们提出了合成无线电和X射线调查的大型宇宙学模拟,以评估联合检测在两个频率范围内的宇宙网的机会。然后,我们提出了针对现有(LOFAR,MWA和XMM)或未来仪器(SKA-LOW和SKA-MID,ATHENA和eROSITA)的最佳观测策略。我们发现,最有希望的目标是在合并的早期阶段,在那里的合并导致快速压缩的温暖,热气体的维里区域的星系团的极端边缘。通过利用无线电波段的探测,未来的深层X射线观测将探测这种气体的发射,并帮助我们以前所未有的细节研究动态温热星系际介质中的等离子体条件。

英文摘要:

Detecting the thermal and non-thermal emission from the shocked cosmic gas surrounding large-scale structures represents a challenge for observations, as well as a unique window into the physics of the warm-hot intergalactic medium. In this work, we present synthetic radio and X-ray surveys of large cosmological simulations in order to assess the chances of jointly detecting the cosmic web in both frequency ranges. We then propose best observing strategies tailored for existing (LOFAR, MWA and XMM) or future instruments (SKA-LOW and SKA-MID, ATHENA and eROSITA). We find that the most promising targets are the extreme peripheries of galaxy clusters in an early merging stage, where the merger causes the fast compression of warm-hot gas onto the virial region. By taking advantage of a detection in the radio band, future deep X-ray observations will probe this gas in emission, and help us to study plasma conditions in the dynamic warm-hot intergalactic medium with unprecedented detail.
