An S - shaped Arc in the Galaxy Cluster RX J 0054 . 0 - 2823 ⋆
The center of the galaxy cluster RX J0054.0-2823 at z = 0.292 is a dynamically active region which includes an interacting system of three galaxies surrounded by a large halo of intra-cluster light. We report here the discovery of an S-shaped feature of total length 11 ′′ in the central region of this cluster and discuss its physical nature. We test the gravitational lensing assumption by doing...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Plane in Rx J0142.0+2131: a Galaxy Cluster Merger at Z = 0.28
We present the Fundamental Plane (FP) in the z = 0.28 cluster of galaxies RX J0142.0+2131. There is no evidence for a difference in the slope of the FP when compared with the Coma cluster, although the internal scatter is larger. On average, stellar populations in RX J0142.0+2131 have rest-frame V -band mass-to-light ratios (M/LV ) 0.29± 0.03 dex lower than in Coma. This is significantly lower ...
متن کاملMagellan Spectroscopy of the Galaxy Cluster Rx J1347.5−1145: Redshift Estimates for the Gravitationally Lensed Arcs
We present imaging and spectroscopic observations of the gravitationally lensed arcs in the field of RX J1347.5−1145, the most X-ray luminous galaxy cluster known. Based on the detection of the [O II] λ3727 emission line, we confirm that the redshift of one of the arcs is z = 0.806. Its color and [O II] line strength are consistent with those of distant, actively star forming galaxies. In a sec...
متن کاملReconstruction of Gas Temperature and Density Profiles of the Galaxy Cluster RX J 1347 . 5 – 1145
We use observations of Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect and X-ray surface brightness to reconstruct the radial profiles of gas temperature and density under the assumption of a spherically symmetric distribution of the gas. The method of reconstruction, first raised by Silk & White, depend directly on the observations of the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect and the X-ray surface brightness, without involving...
متن کاملXMM - Newton observation of the most X - ray - luminous galaxy cluster RX J 1347 . 5 − 1145
We report on an XMM-Newton observation of RX J1347.5−1145 (z=0.451), the most luminous X-ray cluster of galaxies currently known, with a luminosity LX = 6.0 ± 0.1 × 10 erg/s in the [2-10] keV energy band. We present the first temperature map of this cluster, which shows a complex structure. It identifies the cool core and a hot region at radii 50-200 kpc to south-east of the main X-ray peak, at...
