5 Jun 2002 | Journal: | Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 337 (2002) 242 | Subject: | astro-ph | Abstract: | Quasar-driven winds are currently the best candidates for accounting for the pre-heating of the intergalactic medium in clusters. Such winds, occurring during early phases of the evolution of spheroidal galaxies, shock-heat the interstellar gas, thus inducing a detectable Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. We estimate the amplitude and the angular scale of such effect as well as its counts as a function of the comptonization parameter $y$. The contamination due to radio emission by the quasar itself is also discussed. The corresponding mean Compton distortion of the cosmic microwave background spectrum is found to be well below the COBE/FIRAS upper limit. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0206079 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
