摘要:

作为沙普利超星系团巡天(ShaSS)的一部分,我们利用$gri$ VST图像对沙普利超星系团核心及其周围进行了23度$^2$弱引力透镜巡天。这项研究揭示了在$z{\sim}0.048$包含11个集群的区域内的整体物质分布,这些集群都是相互连接的,以及几个正在进行的集群之间的相互作用。用Kaiser-Squires-Broadhurst方法测量了$g$和$r$波段图像的星系形状,并通过$gri$色-色图选择了背景星系。这种技术使我们能够探测到所有的星系团,无论是在$g$波段还是$r$波段的图像中,尽管在不同的$σ$水平上,这表明潜在的暗物质分布与成员星系的数量密度密切相关。更深的$r$波段图像追踪了超星系团核心中作为单一相干结构的五个相互作用的星系团,证实了从核心向北延伸的丝状体的存在,并揭示了$z{\sim}0.17$的背景星系团。我们测量了四个最富的星系团(A3556,A3558,A3560和A3562)在二维剪切斑图中的质量,假设它们的分布是球形的Navarro-Frenk-White(NFW),得到了总质量为$\mathcal{M}_{\rm ShaSS,WL}{=}1.56^{+0.81}_{-0.55}{\times}10^{15\,}{\rm M}_{\odot}$,这与动力学和X射线研究结果是一致的。我们的分析提供了进一步的证据,正在进行的动力学演化在ShaSS地区。

英文摘要:

We present a 23deg$^2$ weak gravitational lensing survey of the Shapley supercluster core and its surroundings using $gri$ VST images as part of the Shapley Supercluster Survey (ShaSS). This study reveals the overall matter distribution over a region containing 11 clusters at $z{\sim}0.048$ that are all interconnected, as well as several ongoing cluster-cluster interactions. Galaxy shapes have been measured by using the Kaiser-Squires-Broadhurst method for the $g$- and $r$-band images and background galaxies were selected via the $gri$ colour-colour diagram. This technique has allowed us to detect all of the clusters, either in the $g$-band or $r$-band images, although at different $σ$ levels, indicating that the underlying dark matter distribution is tightly correlated with the number density of the member galaxies. The deeper $r$-band images have traced the five interacting clusters in the supercluster core as a single coherent structure, confirmed the presence of a filament extending North from the core, and have revealed a background cluster at $z{\sim}0.17$. We have measured the masses of the four richest clusters (A3556, A3558, A3560 and A3562) in the two-dimensional shear pattern, assuming a spherical Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) profile and obtaining a total mass of $\mathcal{M}_{\rm ShaSS,WL}{=}1.56^{+0.81}_{-0.55}{\times}10^{15\,}{\rm M}_{\odot}$, which is consistent with dynamical and X-ray studies. Our analysis provides further evidence of the ongoing dynamical evolution in the ShaSS region.
