Abstract
A dissociative merger is formed by the interplay of ram pressure and gravitational forces, which can lead to a spatial displacement of the dark matter and baryonic components of the recently collided subclusters. CIZA J0107.7+5408 is a nearby (z = 0.105) dissociative merger that hosts two X-ray brightness peaks and a bimodal galaxy distribution. Analyzing MMT/Hectospec observations, we investigate the line-of-sight and spatial distribution of cluster galaxies. Utilizing deep, high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging and large field-of-view Subaru Hyper-Suprime-Cam observations, we perform a weak-lensing analysis of CIZA J0107.7+5408. Our weak-lensing analysis detects a bimodal mass distribution that is spatially consistent with the cluster galaxies but significantly offset from the X-ray brightness peaks. Fitting two Navarro–Frenk–White halos to the lensing signal, we find an equal-mass merger with subcluster masses of M_(200,NE) = 2.8^(1.1)_(-1.1) x 10¹⁴ M_⊙ and M_(200,SW) = 3.1^(1.2)_(-1.2) x 10¹⁴ M_⊙. Moreover, the mass-to-light ratios of the subclusters, (M/L)_(NE) = 571^(+89)_(-91) M_⊙/L_(⊙,B) and (M/L)_(SW) = 564^(+87)_(-89) M_⊙/L_(⊙,B), are found to be consistent with each other and within the range of mass-to-light ratios found for galaxy clusters.
