The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Dynamical masses for 44 SZ-selected galaxy clusters over 755 square degrees

Cristóbal Sifón, Nick Battaglia, Matthew Hasselfield +22

We present galaxy velocity dispersions and dynamical mass estimates for 44 galaxy clusters selected via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope. Dynam…

Evidence for the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeľdovich effect with ACTPol and velocity reconstruction from BOSS

Emmanuel Schaan, Simone Ferraro, Mariana Vargas-Magaña +43

We use microwave temperature maps from two seasons of data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACTPol) at 146 GHz, together with the Constant Mass CMASS galaxy sample from the Ba…

Evidence for the Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Associated with Quasar Feedback

Devin Crichton, Megan B. Gralla, Kirsten Hall +20

Using a radio-quiet subsample of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectroscopic quasar catalogue, spanning redshifts 0.5-3.5, we derive the mean millimetre and far-infrared quasar spec…
