MC2: Subaru and Hubble Space Telescope Weak-lensing Analysis of the Double Radio Relic Galaxy Cluster PLCK G287.0+32.9
Abstract
The second most significant detection of the Planck Sunyaev-Zel'dovich survey, PLCK G287.0+32.9 (z = 0.385), boasts two similarly bright radio relics and a radio halo. One radio relic is located $$\sim 400\,\mathrm{kpc}$$ NW of the X-ray peak and the other $$\sim 2.8$$ Mpc to the SE. This large difference suggests that a complex merging scenario is required. A key missing puzzle for the merging scenario reconstruction is the underlying dark matter distribution in high resolution. Here, we present a joint Subaru Telescope and Hubble Space Telescope weak-lensing analysis of the cluster. Our analysis shows that the mass distribution features four significant substructures. Of the substructures, a primary cluster of mass $${M}_{200{\rm{c}}}={1.59}_{-0.22}^{+0.25}\times {10}^{15}\ {h}_{70}^{-1}\ {M}_{\odot }$$ dominates the weak-lensing signal. This cluster is likely to be undergoing a merger with one (or more) subcluster whose mass is approximately a factor of 10 lower. One candidate is the subcluster of mass $${M}_{200{\rm{c}}}={1.16}_{-0.13}^{+0.15}\times {10}^{14}\ {h}_{70}^{-1}\ {M}_{\odot }$$ located $$\sim 400\,\mathrm{kpc}$$ to the SE. The location of this subcluster suggests that its interaction with the primary cluster could be the source of the NW radio relic. Another subcluster is detected $$\sim 2$$ Mpc to the SE of the X-ray peak with mass $${M}_{200{\rm{c}}}={1.68}_{-0.20}^{+0.22}\times {10}^{14}\more »
