Merging Binary Clusters
We study three prominent bi-modal X-ray clusters: A3528, A1750 and A3395. Using observations taken with ROSAT and ASCA, we analyze the temperature and surface brightness distributions. We also analyze the velocity distributions of the three clusters using new measurements supplemented with previously published data. We examine both the overall cluster properties, as well as the two sub-cluster ...
متن کاملSimulations of Merging Clusters of Galaxies
Numerical simulations of cluster mergers reveal many characteristics of the merging process: shock structure and strength, observational signatures of the dynamical state, effects on the mass determination, turbulence and the evolution of the X-ray luminosity and the magnetic field. In this article I review the results obtained from various simulations over the last years.
متن کاملThe merging history of the Milky Way
The age distribution, and chemical elemental abundances, of stars in the halo of the MilkyWay provide constraints on theories of galaxy formation.As one speci c example, the accretion of satellite galaxies similar to the present retinue of dwarf spheroidals (dSphs) would provide an observable metal-poor, intermediate-age population. This paper presents a quantitative assessment of any contribut...
متن کاملCluster Physics with Merging Galaxy Clusters
Collisions between galaxy clusters provide a unique opportunity to study matter in a parameter space which cannot be explored in our laboratories on Earth. In the standard 3CDM model, where the total density is dominated by the cosmological constant (3) and the matter density by cold dark matter (CDM), structure formation is hierarchical, and clusters growmostly by merging. Mergers of two massi...
متن کاملGalaxy Activity in Merging Binary Galaxy Clusters
We present the results of a study of galaxy activity in two merging binary clusters (A168 and A1750) using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data supplemented with the data in the literature. We have investigated the merger histories of A168 and A1750 by combining the results from a two-body dynamical model and X-ray data. In A168 two subclusters appear to have passed each other and to be com...
