The Empirical X-Ray Luminosity - Gravitational Mass Relation for Clusters of Galaxies

arXiv:astro-ph/9909035 · doi:10.1002/1521-3994(199908)320:4/5<296::AID-ASNA296>3.0.CO;2-8

Abstract

A sample of one hundred and six X-ray galaxy clusters has been analysed in detail. Here we give the observed X-ray luminosity - gravitational mass relation. Possible future applications include conversion of empirical cluster luminosity functions to mass functions and conversion of simulated mass functions to luminosity functions.
