Abstract:

We propose 2 pointing observations of a hot cluster A2163 (z=0.2). A2163 is an X-ray brightest object among the violent merger candidates, which possess a huge radio halo and a complex temperature structure. Thus it is a unique target to discover extremely hot (>20keV) gas produced via merger shock. Thanks to the unprecedent high-quality broad-band spectra of Suzaku we can accurately determine the temperature of the hot gas. Which, at the same time, leads to the detection of the buried non-thermal hard X-ray emission. Combining this observation with the high-resolution images of our thermal SZ effect and the XMM observation, we can obtain a spatial distribution of the extremely hot thermal gas in the merging cluster for the first time.
