We find that the evolutionary curves of all colours obtained by the traditional method are smoother than those by Monte Carlo simulation, that the U- B and B- V colours obtained by the two methods agree with one another, while the V - R and V - I colours by the traditional method are bluer than those by Monte Carlo simulation.A comparison of the Lick/IDS absorption-line indices shows that the variations in all the indices by the traditional method are smoother than that for the Monte Carlo simulation, and that all the indices except for TiO1 and TiO2 are consistent with those for the Monte Carlo simulation.展开更多

In this paper, we investigate some consequences of such a relation by assuming η a constant or a function of the redshift. In order to constrain the parameters concerning η, we consider two groups of cluster gas mass fraction data including 52 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters observed by Chandra in the redshift range from 0.3 to 1.273 and temperature range T gas > 4 keV, under the assumptions of two different temperature profiles. We find that the constant temperature profile is in relatively good agreement with no violation of the distance duality relation for both parameterizations of η, while the one with temperature gradient (the Vikhlinin et al. temperature profile) seems to be incompatible even at 99% CL.展开更多
