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 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...
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 کاملEntropy generation in merging galaxy clusters
This conference has seen much discussion about non-gravitational heating of the intracluster medium, as required to reduce cooling rates and central densities sufficiently to explain the observed properties of galaxy clusters. The amount of energy input required is often computed by comparing to the entropy profile that would be expected from gravitational processes alone, as determined, for ex...
