13. Cluster Classification Just like galaxies, clusters classified morphologically. Overall Compact Medium Compact Open Linear Bautz Morgan classes I, I-II, II, II-III, III based on the ratio between the brightness of 1st and rest I -- single central cD galaxy c.f. A2029 II -- intermediate III -- no dominant cluster galaxy c.f. Hercules

14. Rood-Sastry cD -- like BM I types B -- Binary c.f. Coma L -- Linear C -- Core Compact F -- Flat I -- Irregular Tuning Forks Rood-Sastry cD -- B Struble & Rood I -- F B -- cD L -- F C -- I L C

21. Physics of Galaxy Clusters To 0th order, assume spherical, decreasing density from the center. If n(r) is the 3-D number density, the projected density, N(R), is N(R) =  n[(R 2 +z 2 ) ½ ] dz = 2  where z is the coordinate along the l.o.s. and R is the projected radius ∞ -∞ r n(r) dr (r 2 – R 2 ) ½ ∞R∞R

22. Hydrostatic Equilibrium Good basic model for the hot gas is to assume Hydrostatic Equilibrium dP g /dr = -  g GM(r)/r 2 P =  where g means gas  = + differentiating the gas law  { + } = -  g GM(r)/r 2  M(r) = { + } kT  m p dP g d  g kT  g k dT dr dr  m p  m p dr k T d  g  g dT  m p dr dr - rT d ln  g d ln T G  m p d ln r d ln r density & temperature gradients

23. You can also treat the galaxies this way, just as a “gas” of much more massive particles =  gal P gal = 1/3  gal = n k Tgal  = and we can compare the gas and galaxy distributions since they are living in the same potential. dP gal GM dr r 2 dP gal kT gas 1 d  gas 3  gal dr  m p  gas dr

24. We can write for the relative density relations ( ) = ( ) β where β = = This is known as the Beta Model. If β = 1, gas and galaxies have the same distribution. Generally β  1 I X (r)  [ 1 + (b/r c ) 2 ] -3β + 1/2  gas  gal  0,gas  0,gal  m p  m p  2 los 3 k T kT X-ray surface intensity and r c = optical galaxy core radius

25. Other Dynamical Quantities Crossing Time t cross ~ R/  ~ 2 x 10 9 yr for R=R A and H=70 Dynamical relaxation (Virialization) takes places on timescales of the crossing time, so (1) clusters are generally relaxed, and the centers of the clusters relax first Two-Body Relaxation time is long in clusters t relax ~ t cross (N / ln N) so cluster galaxies are not in “thermal” equilibrium

26. X-ray Emission Spectrum of x-ray gas is optically thin thermal bremhmmsstrahlung (free-free emission) plus emission lines

27. X-ray emission from Coma. ROSAT (left) and XMM (right). Note structure in the images.

28. Bremsstrahlung emissivity = ε υ = ( ) ½ e -hυ/kT g ff (T,υ) where n e and n i are the number density of electrons and ions, Z is the ion charge and g ff is the Gaunt factor. Flat then exponentially decreasing. Typical x-ray temperatures are ~ 50 million degrees or kT = 5 kev For a thermal pasma of solar abundance, bremsstrahlung alone gives e ff  3.0 x10 -27 (T / 1K) ½ (n e / 1 cm -3 ) 2 erg cm -3 s -1 32  Z 2 e 6 n e n i 2  3 m e c 3 3kT m e

29. When line emission is included: ε total  6.2 x10 -27 (T / 1K) ½ (n e / 1 cm -3 ) 2 erg cm -3 s -1

30. Use X-ray features to study Chemistry (c.f. Mushotzsky)

31. A Case Study - The Virgo Cluster Assume D = 16 Mpc (HST Key Project) Zw-B(0) magnitudes 6 o Core  v = 716 km/s r H ~ 0.8 Mpc M P ~ 8 x 10 14 M  M/L B ~ 750 (M/L)  But (1) substructure exists, (2) there is at least one background group contaminating at 2200 km/s (Virgo W), and (3) Spirals avoid the center and appear to be infalling.

35. First problem is to find where the cluster really is: JH85 from CfA survey, luminosity weighted center of all galaxies with v < 3000 km/s, m  14.5 error ~ 3’ --- iterate on sample Isopleths in the Zwicky catalog
