Testing Cosmological Models with Negative Pressure

Alberto Cappi

There is now strong evidence that the main contribution to the cosmic energy density is not due to matter, but to another component with negative pressure. Its nature is still unkn…

CHEX-MATE: exploring the kinematical properties of Planck galaxy clusters

Lorenzo Pizzuti, Rafael Barrena, Mauro Sereno +19

We analyse the kinematical properties of the CHEX-MATE (Cluster HEritage project with XMM-Newton - Mass Assembly and Thermodynamics at the Endpoint of structure formation) galaxy c…

Nature and Environment of Very Luminous Galaxies

Alberto Cappi, Christophe Benoist, Luiz N. da Costa +1

The most luminous galaxies in the blue passband have a larger correlation amplitude than L* galaxies. They do not appear to be preferentially located in rich clusters or groups, bu…

Edgar Allan Poe: the first man to conceive a Newtonian evolving Universe

Paolo Molaro, Alberto Cappi

The notion that we live in an evolving universe was established only in the twentieth century with the discovery of the recession of galaxies by Hubble and with the Lemaitre and Fr…

CHEX-MATE: Dynamical masses for a sample of 101 Planck Sunyaev-Zeldovich-selected galaxy clusters

Mauro Sereno, Sophie Maurogordato, Alberto Cappi +23

The Cluster HEritage project with XMM-Newton - Mass Assembly and Thermodynamics at the Endpoint of structure formation (CHEX-MATE) is a programme to study a minimally biased sample…

Evolution of the real-space correlation function from next generation cluster surveys

Srivatsan Sridhar, Sophie Maurogordato, Christophe Benoist +2

We investigate to which accuracy it is possible to recover the real-space two-point correlation function of galaxy clusters from cluster catalogues based on photometric redshifts,…
