Temperature Structure in Abell 1367
We study the temperature structure of the rich cluster of galaxies Abell 1367 using two independent methods of correcting for the ASCA PSF. The results of the two methods are in excellent agreement and give solid evidence of a strong and localized shock in the intracluster medium (ICM). Our analysis suggests that we are observing the merger of two subclusters. We find that the lower luminosity ...
متن کاملNeutral Hydrogen in Galaxy Groups
Abstract. We present preliminary results from a study of the neutral hydrogen (Hi) properties of an X-ray selected sample of nearby loose galaxy groups. This forms part of a multi-wavelength investigation (X-ray, optical and radio) of the formation and evolution of galaxies within a group environment. Some initial findings of an ATNF Parkes Multibeam wide-area neutral hydrogen (Hi) imaging surv...
متن کاملMultiple merging in the Abell cluster 1367 . ⋆
We present a dynamical analysis of the central ∼ 1.3 square degrees of the cluster of galaxies Abell 1367, based on 273 redshift measurements (of which 119 are news). From the analysis of the 146 confirmed cluster members we derive a significantly non-Gaussian velocity distribution, with a mean location CBI = 6484±81 km s −1 and a scale SBI = 891 ± 58 km s −1. The cluster appears elongated from...
متن کاملDiffuse Optical Light in Galaxy Clusters I: Abell 3888
We are undertaking a program to measure the characteristics of the intracluster light (total flux, profile, color, and substructure) in a sample of 10 galaxy clusters with a range of cluster mass, morphology, and redshift. We present here the methods and results for the first cluster in that sample, A3888. We have identified an intracluster light (ICL) component in A3888 in V and r that contain...
متن کاملSupernova rates in Abell galaxy clusters and implications for metallicity
Supernovae (SNe) play a critical role in the metal enrichment of the intracluster medium (ICM) in galaxy clusters. Not only are SNe the main source for metals, but they may also supply the energy to eject enriched gas from galaxies by winds. However, measurements of SN rates in galaxy clusters have not been published to date. We have initiated a program to find SNe in 163 medium-redshift (0.06 ...
