XMM observation of the dynamically young galaxy cluster
We present an XMM observation of the distant galaxy cluster CL 0939+4713. The X-ray image shows pronounced substructure, with two main subclusters which have even some internal structure. This is an indication that the cluster is a dynamically young system. This conclusion is supported by the temperature distribution: a hot region is found between the two main subclusters indicating that they a...
متن کاملXMM - Newton EPIC Observation of the Galaxy Cluster A 3667 ⋆
The Abell cluster of galaxies A3667 was observed with XMM-Newton in 6 partially overlapping pointings. We present here the resulting X-ray surface brightness, temperature, entropy and pressure maps and discuss the structure of this cluster on scales from 0.1 to 30 arcminutes. Based on these observations we refine the origin of the A3667 cold front to the displacement of the low entropy, high me...
متن کاملThe XMM Cluster Survey : A Massive Galaxy
We report the discovery of XMMXCS J2215.9-1738, a massive galaxy cluster at z = 1.45, which was found in the XMM Cluster Survey. The cluster candidate was initially identified as an extended X-ray source in archival XMM data. Optical spectroscopy shows that 6 galaxies within a ∼60 arcsec diameter region lie at z = 1.45 ± 0.01. Model fits to the X-ray spectra of the extended emission yield kT = ...
متن کاملAn XMM - Newton observation of the dynamically active binary cluster A 1750
We present results from the XMM-Newton observation of the binary cluster A1750 at z = 0.086. We have performed a detailed study of the surface brightness, temperature and entropy distribution and confirm that the two main clusters of the system (A1750 N and A1750 C) have just started to interact. From the temperature distribution, we calculate that they are likely to merge sometime in the next ...
متن کاملAn XMM - Newton observation of the massive , relaxed galaxy cluster ClJ 1226 . 9 + 3332
A detailed X-ray analysis of an XMM-Newton observation of the high-redshift (z=0.89) galaxy cluster ClJ1226.9+3332 is presented. After careful consideration of background subtraction issues, the X-ray temperature is found to be 11.5 −0.9 keV, the highest X-ray temperature of any cluster at z > 0.6. The temperature is consistent with the observed velocity dispersion. In contrast to MS1054-0321, ...
