Ruling the Universe: An Improved Method for Measuring H_0 with Galaxy Clusters
Eric J. Hallman, Jack O. Burns, Patrick M. Motl +1
Withdrawn at the current time due to errors.
Challenges for Precision Cosmology with X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect Gas Mass Measurements of Galaxy Clusters
Eric J. Hallman, Patrick M. Motl, Jack O. Burns +1
We critically analyze the measurement of galaxy cluster gas masses, which is central to cosmological studies that rely on the galaxy cluster gas mass fraction. Using synthetic obse…
The Integrated Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect as the Superior Method for Measuring the Mass of Clusters of Galaxies
Patrick M. Motl, Eric J. Hallman, Jack O. Burns +1
We investigate empirical scaling relations between the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (SZE) and cluster mass in simulated clusters of galaxies. The simulated clusters have been c…
AGN heating and dissipative processes in galaxy clusters
M. Bruggen, M. Ruszkowski, E. Hallman
Recent X-ray observations reveal growing evidence for heating by active galactic nuclei (AGN) in clusters and groups of galaxies. AGN outflows play a crucial role in explaining the…
