Suzaku Observation of Abell 1689: Anisotropic Temperature and Entropy Distributions Associated with the Large-Scale Structure

Abstract

(Abridged) We present results of Suzaku observations of the intracluster medium (ICM) in Abell 1689, combined with complementary analysis of the SDSS data and weak and strong lensing analysis of Subaru/Suprime-Cam and HST/ACS observations. Faint X-ray emission from the ICM around the virial radius is detected at 4.0 sigma significance. We find anisotropic gas temperature and entropy distributions in cluster outskirts correlated with large-scale structure of galaxies. The high temperature and entropy region in the northeastern (NE) outskirts is connected to an overdense filamentary structure. The outskirt regions in contact with low density void environments have low gas temperatures and entropies, deviating from hydrostatic equilibrium. These results suggest that thermalization of the ICM occurs faster along the filamentary structures than the void regions. A joint X-ray and lensing analysis shows that the hydrostatic mass is $\sim60-90%$ of spherical lensing one but comparable to a triaxial halo mass within errors in $0.6r_{2500} \simlt r \simlt 0.8r_{500}$, and that it is significantly biased as low as $\simlt60%$ within $0.4r_{2500}$, irrespective of mass models. The thermal gas pressure within $r_{500}$ is, at most, $\sim50$--60% of the total pressure to balance fully the gravity of the spherical lensing mass, and $\sim30$--40% around the virial radius. Although these constitute lower limits when one considers the possible halo triaxiality, these small relative contributions of thermal pressure would require additional sources of pressure, such as bulk and/or turbulent motions.
