AWM 7 radial velocities

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We have measured redshifts and Kron-Cousins R-band magnitudes for a sample of galaxies in the poor cluster AWM 7.

Description

We have measured redshifts for 172 galaxies; 106 of these are cluster members. We determine the luminosity function (LF) from a photometric survey of the central 1.2x1.2h^-1^Mpc.

The LF has a bump at the bright end and a faint-end slope of {alpha}=-1.37+/-0.16, populated almost exclusively by absorption-line galaxies. The cluster velocity dispersion is lower in the core (~530km/s) than at the outskirts (~680km/s), consistent with the cooling flow seen in the X-ray. The cold core extends ~150h^-1^kpc from the cluster center.

The Kron-Cousins R-band mass-to-light ratio of the system is 650+/-170hM_{sun}_/L_{sun}_, substantially lower than previous optical determinations, but consistent with most previous X-ray determinations. We adopt H_0_=100hkm/s/Mpc throughout this paper; at the mean cluster redshift (5247+/-76km/s), 1h^-1^Mpc subtends 65.5'.
