摘要
We investigate the gas motions in the core region of the Abell 3395 South subcluster (A3395S) using high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with XRISM/Resolve. By analyzing the Fe XXV He alpha emission line, we directly measure the line-of-sight bulk and turbulent velocities of the intracluster medium. We find that the one-dimensional turbulent velocity is 124 +/- 21 km s(-1), corresponding to a subsonic Mach number of 0 . 19 +/- 0 . 03 , while a finite line-of-sight bulk velocity of 263 +/- 23 km s(-1) is detected. The coexistence of low turbulence and finite bulk motion suggests that A3395S has not yet reached a dynamically relaxed state. These results are consistent with the non-detection of a radio halo in A3395S, suggesting that turbulent particle reacceleration is currently inefficient in the cluster core. This study demonstrates that high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with XRISM provides a powerful means to directly constrain intracluster medium dynamics in merging galaxy clusters, and it provides a reference for future comparative studies of A3395N and A3391 within the same large-scale structure.
