The IntraCluster Medium: An Invariant Stellar IMF
Evidence supporting the hypothesis of an invariant stellar Initial Mass Function is strong and varied. The intra-cluster medium in rich clusters of galaxies is one of the few contrary locations where recent interpretations of the chemical abundances have favoured an IMF that is biased towards massive stars, compared to the ‘normal’ IMF. This interpretation hinges upon the neglect of Type Ia sup...
متن کاملThe properties of the X-ray holes in the intracluster medium of the Perseus cluster
High resolution X-ray and low frequency radio imaging now allow us to examine in detail the interaction and physical properties of the radio source 3C 84 and the surrounding thermal gas. The radiative and dynamical properties of the inner X-ray holes, which coincide with the radio lobes, indicate that the ratio of the energy factor k and filling factor f is in the range 180 < k/f < 500. We defi...
متن کاملInhomogeneity in the Hot Intracluster Medium of Abell 1060 Observed with Chandra
A Chandra observation of the non-cooling flow cluster A 1060 has confirmed that the hot intracluster medium has fairly uniform distributions of temperature and metal abundance from a radius of about 230 kpc to the central 5 kpc region (H0 = 75 km s −1 Mpc). The radial temperature profile shows a broad peak at 30–40 kpc from the center at a level ∼ 20% higher than that in the outer region. Assum...
متن کامل0 Signatures of Interstellar - Intracluster Medium Interactions : Spiral Galaxy Rotation Curves in Abell 2029
We investigate the rich cluster Abell 2029 (z ∼ 0.08) using optical imaging and long-slit spectral observations of 52 disk galaxies distributed throughout the cluster field. No strong emission-line galaxies are present within ∼ 400 kpc of the cluster center, a region largely dominated by the similarly-shaped X-ray and low surface brightness optical envelopes centered on the giant cD galaxy. How...
متن کاملDetection of Intracluster Gas Bulk Velocities in the Perseus & Centaurus Clusters
We report the results of spatially resolved X-ray spectroscopy of 8 different ASCA pointings distributed symmetrically around the center of the Perseus cluster. The outer region of the intracluster gas is roughly isothermal, with temperature ∼ 6–7 keV, and metal abundance ∼ 0.3 Solar. Spectral analysis of the central pointing is consistent with the presence of a cooling flow and a central metal...
