    Feedback from intra-cluster supernovae on the ICM in cooling flow galaxy clusters

    No full text
    We study the effect of heating and metal enrichment from supernovae (SNe) residing between galaxies on the Intra-Cluster Medium (ICM). Recent observations indicate that a considerable fraction ( ̃20%) of the SN Ia parent stellar population in galaxy clusters is intergalactic. By considering their effect on the relaxed progenitors of cooling flow clusters we propose that intra-cluster SNe can act as a distributed heating source which may influence the initial stages of the formation of cooling flows. We investigate the increase in cooling time as a function of the energy input supplied by SNe and their assumed spatial distribution, and conclude that intra-cluster SNe represent a heating source which in some clusters can cause a delay of the formation of cooling flows. This would imply that some cooling flows are younger than previously thought. We also discuss the impact that a large population of intra-cluster SNe could have on the chemical evolution of the ICM in cooling flow clusters

    2D velocity fields of simulated interacting disc galaxies

    We investigate distortions in the velocity fields of disc galaxies and their use in revealing the dynamical state of interacting galaxies at different redshifts. We model disc galaxies in combined N-body/hydrodynamic simulations. 2D velocity fields of the gas are extracted, which we place at different redshifts from z=0z=0 to z=1z=1 to investigate resolution effects on the properties of the velocity field. To quantify the structure of the velocity field we also perform a kinemetry analysis. If the galaxy is undisturbed we find that the rotation curve extracted from the 2D field agrees well with long-slit rotation curves. This is not true for interacting systems, as the kinematic axis is not well defined and in general does not coincide with the photometric axis of the system. For large (Milky way type) galaxies we find that distortions are still visible at intermediate redshifts but are partly smeared out. Thus a careful analysis of the velocity field is necessary before using it for a Tully-Fisher study. For small galaxies (disc scale length ~2 kpc) even strong distortions are not visible in the velocity field at z0.5z\approx0.5 with currently available angular resolution. Therefore we conclude that current distant Tully-Fisher studies cannot give reliable results for low-mass systems. Additionally we confirm the power of near-infrared integral field spectrometers in combination with adaptive optics (such as SINFONI) to study velocity fields of galaxies at high redshift (z2z\sim2).

    Internal kinematics of isolated modelled disc galaxies

    We present a systematic investigation of rotation curves (RCs) of fully hydrodynamically simulated galaxies, including cooling, star formation with associated feedback, and galactic winds. Applying two commonly used fitting formulae to characterize the RCs, we investigated systematic effects on the shape of RCs by both the observational constraints and internal properties of the galaxies. We mainly focused on effects that occur in measurements of intermediate and high redshift galaxies. We found that RC parameters are affected by the observational setup, like slit misalignment or the spatial resolution and that they also depend on the evolution of a galaxy. Therefore, a direct comparison of quantities derived from measured RCs with predictions of semi-analytic models is difficult. The virial velocity VcV_{\rm{c}}, which is usually calculated and used by semi-analytic models, can differ significantly from fit parameters like VmaxV_{\rm{max}} or VoptV_{\rm{opt}} inferred from RCs. We found that VcV_{\rm{c}} is usually lower than typical characteristic velocities derived from RCs. VmaxV_{\rm{max}} alone is in general not a robust estimator of the virial mass

    Internal kinematics of modelled interacting disc galaxies

    We present an investigation of galaxy-galaxy interactions and their effects on the velocity fields of disc galaxies in combined N-body/hydrodynamic simulations, which include cooling, star formation with feedback, and galactic winds. Rotation curves (RCs) of the gas are extracted from these simulations in a way that follows the procedure applied to observations of distant, small, and faint galaxies as closely as possible. We show that galaxy-galaxy mergers and fly-bys disturb the velocity fields significantly and hence the RCs of the interacting galaxies, leading to asymmetries and distortions in the RCs. Typical features of disturbed kinematics are significantly rising or falling profiles in the direction of the companion galaxy and pronounced bumps in the RCs. In addition, tidal tails can leave strong imprints on the rotation curve. All these features are observable for intermediate redshift galaxies, on which we focus our investigations. We use a quantitative measure for the asymmetry of rotation curves to show that the appearance of these distortions strongly depends on the viewing angle. We also find in this way that the velocity fields settle back into relatively undisturbed equilibrium states after unequal mass mergers and fly-bys. About 1 Gyr after the first encounter, the RCs show no severe distortions anymore. These results are consistent with previous theoretical and observational studies. As an illustration of our results, we compare our simulated velocity fields and direct images with rotation curves from VLT/FORS spectroscopy and ACS images of a cluster at z=0.53z=0.53 and find remarkable similarities.

    Jean Noël Kapferer : Die Verschwundenen von Mourmelon. Ursprung und Auslegung der Gerüchte. Seit Januar 1980 sind mehrere Wehrpflichtige in der Nähe der Truppenlager Mourmelon verschwunden. Diese Erscheinungen gaben zu Gerüchten Anlass. Im vorliegenden Aufsatz untersucht der Verfasser den Inhalt dieser Gerüchte aus dem Gesichtswinkel der in ihnen erscheinenden Stereotypen, der Archetypen, auf die sie sich beziehen, und ihrer sozialen Funktion. Er prüft, warum gewisse Behauptungen als Erklärung zu diesem wiederholten Verschwmden zu öffentlichen Geruchten werden und warum ander,. zunächst ebenso plausibel, nicht zu Geruchten werden können.Jean-Noël Kapferer : The disappearances of Mourmelon. Origins and interpretation of rumours. Since January 1980, a number of soldiers have disappeared from an area close to the military camp of Mourmelon. These disappearances have generated rumours. In this paper, the author analyzes the content of the rumours : the stereotypes they convey, the archetypes they refer to, and their social function. He also examines why several hypothesis explaining the disappearances are rumoured and others, quite as plausible a priori, cannot go round.Depuis janvier 1980, plusieurs appelés du contingent ont disparu dans la proximité du camp militaire de Mourmelon. Ces disparitions ont suscité des rumeurs. Dans cet article, l'auteur analyse le contenu de celles-ci sous l'angle des stéréotypes qu'elles véhiculent, des archétypes auxquels elles renvoient et de leur fonction sociale. Il examine pourquoi certaines thèses expliquant les disparitions sont colportées par la rumeur et pourquoi d'autres, tout aussi plausibles a priori, ne peuvent circuler.Jean-Noël Kapferer : Las desapariciones de Mourmelon. Origen e interpretation de los rumores. Desde el mes de Enero de 1980, varios reclutas del contingente desparacierón en las cercanias del cuartel militar de Mourmelon. Estas desapariciones suscitaron rumores. En este articulo, el autor analiza el contenido de estas, bajo el ángulo de estereotipos que vehiculan unos arquetipos a las cuales devuelven su función social. Asi mismo, explica porqué ciertas tesis, explicando las desapariciones, son divulgadas por el rumor y porqué otras, asi mismo, probables, no pueden circular.Kapferer Jean-Noël.

    Enrichment of the ICM of galaxy clusters due to ram-pressure stripping

    We investigate the impact of galactic mass loss triggered by ram-pressure stripping of cluster galaxies on the evolution of the intra-cluster medium (ICM). We use combined N-body and hydrodynamic simulations together with a phenomenological galaxy formation model and a prescription of the effect of ram-pressure stripping on the galaxies. We analyze the effect of galaxy – ICM interaction for different model clusters with different masses and different merger histories. Our simulations show that ram-pressure stripping can account for ~10% of the overall observed level of enrichment in the ICM within a radius of 1.3 Mpc. The efficiency of metal ejection of cluster galaxies depends in the first few Gyr of the simulation mainly on the cluster mass and is significantly increased during major merger events. Additionally we show that ram-pressure stripping is most efficient in the center of the galaxy cluster and the level of enrichment drops quite fast at larger radii. We present emission-weighted metallicity maps of the ICM which can be compared with X-ray observations. The resulting distribution of metals in the ICM shows a complex pattern with stripes and plumes of metal-rich material. The metallicity maps can be used to trace the present and past interactions between the ICM and cluster galaxies
