Exploring the Mass Segregation Effect of X-Ray Sources in Globular Clusters. II. The Case of Terzan 5

Using archival Chandra observations with a total effective exposure of 734 ks, we derive an updated catalog of point sources in the massive globular cluster (GC) Terzan 5. Our catalog covers an area of 58.1 arcmin(2) (R <= 4.'3) with 489 X-ray sources, and more than 75% of these sources are first detected in this cluster. We find significant dips in the radial distribution profiles of X-ray sources in Terzan 5, with the projected distance and width of the distribution dips for bright (L-X greater than or similar to 9.5 X 10(30) erg s(-1)) X-ray sources larger than those of the faint (L-X greater than or similar to 9.5 X 10(30) erg s(-1)) sources. By fitting the radial distribution of the X-ray sources with a generalized King model, we estimated an average mass of 1.48 +/- 0.11 and 1.27 +/- 0.13 M-circle dot for the bright and faint X-ray sources, respectively. These results are in agreement with that observed in 47 Tuc, which may suggest a universal mass segregation effect for X-ray sources in GCs. Compared with 47 Tuc, we show that the two-body relaxation timescale of Terzan 5 is much smaller, but its dynamical age is significantly younger than 47 Tuc. These features suggest that the evolution of Terzan 5 is not purely driven by two-body relaxation, and the tidal stripping effect also plays an important role in accelerating the dynamical evolution of this cluster.
