AI总结:

本研究利用弱引力透镜绘制58个邻近X射线亮星系团的质量分布,发现最亮团星系、红序星系分布与总质量分布在团内区域存在显著取向一致性,揭示星系团经历了长期动力学演化。

摘要:

本域体积完备星系团巡天(LoVoCCS)是一项正在进行的项目,旨在利用暗能量相机(DECam)观测近百个低红移X射线亮星系团(红移范围 $0.03<z<0.12$,0.1-2.4 keV 能段X射线光度 $L_{\ m X500c}>10^{44}$ erg/s),并在 $u,g,r,i,z$ 波段获取数据,其 $5σ$ 点源深度约为25-26 AB星等。本文利用弱引力透镜效应绘制了58个星系团场中的孔径质量分布图。这些星系团涵盖了从近弛豫到并合系统的多种动力学状态,其中约一半此前未经过详细的弱引力透镜分析。在每个星系团场中,我们分析了由孔径质量图描述的二维质量分布、二维红序(RS)星系分布以及最亮团星系(BCG)之间的取向一致性。我们发现,BCG与红序星系分布的取向在星系团内部区域表现出强一致性:在2 Mpc范围内,中位错位角为19度。我们还观测到红序星系分布取向与星系团整体质量分布取向之间的一致性(在1 Mpc范围内中位差异为32度),尽管这一结果受到星系形状噪声和星系团样本规模限制的制约。这些取向一致性表明星系团在宇宙时间尺度上经历了长期的动力学演化。

英文摘要:

The Local Volume Complete Cluster Survey (LoVoCCS) is an on-going program to observe nearly a hundred low-redshift X-ray-luminous galaxy clusters (redshifts $0.03<z<0.12$ and X-ray luminosities in the 0.1-2.4 keV band $L_{\rm X500c}>10^{44}$ erg/s) with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), capturing data in $u,g,r,i,z$ bands with a $5σ$ point source depth of approximately 25-26th AB magnitudes. Here, we map the aperture masses in 58 galaxy cluster fields using weak gravitational lensing. These clusters span a variety of dynamical states, from nearly relaxed to merging systems, and approximately half of them have not been subject to detailed weak lensing analysis before. In each cluster field, we analyze the alignment between the 2D mass distribution described by the aperture mass map, the 2D red-sequence (RS) galaxy distribution, and the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG). We find that the orientations of the BCG and the RS distribution are strongly aligned throughout the interiors of the clusters: the median misalignment angle is 19 deg within 2 Mpc. We also observe the alignment between the orientations of the RS distribution and the overall cluster mass distribution (by a median difference of 32 deg within 1 Mpc), although this is constrained by galaxy shape noise and the limitations of our cluster sample size. These types of alignment suggest long-term dynamical evolution within the clusters over cosmic timescales.
