摘要:

本文以X射线观测为主要手段,研究了星系团中团内介质(ICM)与其成员星系的相互作用。通过(磁)流体动力学和引力通道,运动的星系预计会拖动ICM周围,并转移到ICM的宇宙学时间尺度上的动力学能量的一部分。这个假设与几个观测结果一致,包括星系可能向星系团中心的宇宙学坠落,发现红移为z~1到z~0。进一步假设星系损失的能量首先转化为ICM湍流,然后消散,这张照片可以解释亚音速和均匀的ICM湍流,Hitomi在英仙座星系团的核心区域测量。该方案还可以解释其他几个悬而未决的问题,关于星系团,包括什么阻止ICM从预期的辐射冷却,如何在附近的集群中的各种质量分量已经获得不同的径向分布,以及如何实现热稳定性和冷ICM组件共存的cD星系周围。这一观点也被认为与星系演化的一般情况有关,包括它们对环境的影响。

英文摘要:

Based mainly on X-ray observations, studies are made on interactions between the intra-cluster medium (ICM) in clusters of galaxies and their member galaxies. Through (magneto)hydrodynamic and gravitational channels, the moving galaxies are expected to drag the ICM around them, and transfer to the ICM some fraction of their dynamical energies on cosmological time scales. This hypothesis is in line with several observations, including the possible cosmological infall of galaxies towards the cluster center, found over redshifts of z~1 to z~0. Further assuming that the energy lost by the galaxies is first converted into ICM turbulence and then dissipated, this picture can explain the subsonic and uniform ICM turbulence, measured with Hitomi in the core region of the Perseus cluster. The scenario may also explain several other unanswered problems regarding clusters of galaxies, including what prevents the ICM from the expected radiative cooling, how the various mass components in nearby clusters have attained different radial distributions, and how a thermal stability is realized between hot and cool ICM components that co-exist around cD galaxies. This view is also considered to pertain to the general scenario of galaxy evolution, including their environmental effects.
