摘要:

许多星系团都有Mpc尺度的漫射射电源,称为射电晕。它们的起源与导致集群本身形成的过程有关。为了揭示这种联系,有必要对射电晕进行统计研究。我们从Planck SZ星表中选取了一个M_(500)> 6 e_(14)Msun,z=0.08-0.33的星系团样本。在论文I中,我们介绍了我们对这些星团进行的无线电和X射线数据分析。在这里,我们研究样品的无线电特性,在连接到集群的质量和动力学状态。我们使用从X射线数据中获得的动力学信息来评估合并在射电晕起源中的作用。我们研究了射电功率-质量图中星系团的分布以及动力学对射电晕的射电光度和发射率的作用。我们测量了无线电晕的发生作为集群质量的函数,并将其与湍流加速模型的预期进行了比较。我们发现,超过90%的射电晕是在合并集群和它们的无线电功率与主机集群的质量相关。相关性显示出很大的分散性。有趣的是,我们发现,集群动力学显着有助于这种分散与更多的干扰集群更无线电发光。没有射电晕的星系团通常是松弛的,其弥散发射的上限低于相关性。我们发现,集群的无线电发射率表现出明显的双峰性,无线电晕的发射率是至少5倍以上的非发射与更轻松的集群。我们发现,无线电晕的分数从约70%,在高质量的集群到约35%,在较低的质量系统的样品,我们表明,这一结果是在良好的协议与预期的湍流再加速模型。

英文摘要:

Many galaxy clusters host Mpc scale diffuse radio sources called radio halos. Their origin is connected to the processes that lead to the formation of clusters themselves. In order to unveil this connection, statistical studies of radio halos are necessary. We selected a sample of galaxy clusters with M500>6e14Msun and z=0.08-0.33 from the Planck SZ catalogue. In paper I, we presented the radio and X-ray data analysis that we carried out on these clusters. Here, we study the radio properties of the sample, in connection to the mass and dynamical state of clusters. We used the dynamical information derived from the X-ray data to assess the role of mergers in the origin of radio halos. We studied the distribution of clusters in the radio power-mass diagram and the role of dynamics on the radio luminosity and emissivity of radio halos. We measured the occurrence of radio halos as a function of the cluster mass and we compared it with the expectations of turbulent acceleration models. We found that more than the 90% of radio halos are in merging clusters and that their radio power correlates with the mass of the host clusters. The correlation shows a large dispersion. Interestingly, we showed that cluster dynamics contributes significantly to this dispersion with more disturbed clusters being more radio luminous. Clusters without radio halos are generally relaxed and the upper limits to their diffuse emission lie below the correlation. We showed that the radio emissivity of clusters exhibits an apparent bimodality, with the emissivity of radio halos being at least 5 times larger than the non-emission associated with more relaxed clusters. We found that the fraction of radio halos drops from ~70% in high mass clusters to ~35% in the lower mass systems of the sample and we showed that this result is in good agreement with the expectations from turbulent re-acceleration models.
