X-ray centres of COSMOS galaxy groups

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters and groups in the ~2deg^2^ of the COSMOS field using all available X-ray observations from the XMM-Newton and Chandra observatories.

Description

We reach an X-ray flux limit of 3x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s in the 0.5-2keV range, and identify 247 X-ray groups with M_200c_=8x10^12^-3x10^14^M_{sun}_ at a redshift range of 0.08=<z<1.53, using the multiband photometric redshift and the master spectroscopic redshift catalogues of the COSMOS.

The X-ray centres of groups are determined using high-resolution Chandra imaging. We investigate the relations between the offset of the brightest group galaxies (BGGs) from halo X-ray centre and group properties and compare with predictions from semi-analytic models and hydrodynamical simulations. We find that BGG offset decreases with both increasing halo mass and decreasing redshift with no strong dependence on the X-ray flux and SNR.

We show that the BGG offset decreases as a function of increasing magnitude gap with no considerable redshift-dependent trend. The stellar mass of BGGs in observations extends over a wider dynamic range compared to model predictions. At z<0.5, the central dominant BGGs become more massive than those with large offsets by up to 0.3dex, in agreement with model prediction.

The observed and predicted log-normal scatter in the stellar mass of both low- and large-offset BGGs at fixed halo mass is ~0.3dex.
