Abstract
We analyzed the X-ray data obtained by the Chandra telescope for the galaxy cluster CL0024+17 (z = 0.39). The mean temperature of the cluster is estimated (kT = 4.35 +0.51−0.44 keV) and the surface brightness profile is derived. We generated the mass and density profiles for dark matter and gas using numerical simulations and the Navarro-Frenk-White dark matter density profile (Navarro et al., 1995) for a spherically symmetric cluster in which gas is in hydrostatic equilibrium with the cluster field. The total mass of the cluster is estimated to be M 200 = 3.51 +0.38−0.47 × 10 14Sun within a radius of R 200 = 1.24 +0.12−0.17 Mpc of the cluster center. The contribution of dark matter to the total mass of the cluster is estimated as \({{M_{200_{DM} } } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{M_{200_{DM} } } {M_{tot} }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {M_{tot} }} = 0.89\).
