Abstract:
We present the results from an extensive spectroscopic survey of the
central region of the nearby galaxy cluster Abell 2199 (A2199) at
z=0.03. By combining 775 new redshifts from the MMT/Hectospec
observations with the data in the literature, we construct a large
sample of 1624 galaxies with measured redshifts at R<30', which
results in high spectroscopic completeness at rpetro,0<20.5 (77%).
We use these data to study the kinematics and clustering of galaxies,
focusing on the comparison with those of the intracluster medium (ICM)
from Suzaku X-ray observations. We identify 406 member galaxies of
A2199 at R<30' using the caustic technique. The velocity dispersion
profile of cluster members appears smoothly connected to the stellar
velocity dispersion profile of the cD galaxy. The luminosity function
is well fitted with a Schechter function at Mr< -15. The radial
velocities of cluster galaxies generally agree well with those of the
ICM, but there are some regions where the velocity difference between
the two is about a few hundred kilometers per second. The cluster
galaxies show a hint of global rotation at R<5' with
vrot=300-600km/s, but the ICM in the same region does not show such
rotation. We apply a friends-of-friends algorithm to the cluster
galaxy sample at R<60' and identify 32 group candidates, and examine
the spatial correlation between the galaxy groups and X-ray emission.
This extensive survey in the central region of A2199 provides an
important basis for future studies of interplay among the galaxies,
the ICM, and the dark matter in the cluster.
Description:
We used Hectospec on the MMT 6.5m telescope for spectroscopic
observations. We observed four fields with 3x20min exposure each, and
obtained spectra covering the wavelength range 3500-9150Å
(resolution of ∼6Å). All the fields are centered on the A2199 X-ray
center (RAdeg=247.1582, DEdeg=39.5487).
In the end, we obtain 775 reliable redshifts from the observations of
1024 targets. We combine these data with those from SDSS DR12 (Alam+
2015, V/147) and from the literature. See section 2 for further details.

Note (1): Because the number density of the galaxy sample is different in the
inner and outer regions due to the different limiting apparent
magnitudes of the data, the linking length (ll) for the FoF algorithm
is chosen differently. Groups 1-17 are those found at R<30' and
identified with ll=0.083h-1Mpc, and Groups 18-32 are those at
R=30-60' and identified with ll=0.090h-1Mpc.
Note (2): For the groups close to the boundary where the limiting apparent
magnitude changes (i.e. R=30') and the groups near the outermost
boundary (R=1°), Nm can be underestimated. Thus we add "≥" to
indicate that the given Nm is the lower limit.
