A Deep Chandra Observation of the Distant Galaxy Cluster MS1137.5+6625
Laura Grego, Jan Vrtilek, Leon Van Speybroeck +5
We present results from a deep Chandra observation of MS1137.5+66, a distant (z=0.783) and massive cluster of galaxies. Only a few similarly massive clusters are currently known at…
Evolution of the cluster X-ray scaling relations since z>0.4
A. Vikhlinin, L. VanSpeybroeck, M. Markevitch +2
We derive correlations between X-ray temperature, luminosity, and gas mass for a sample of 22 distant, z>0.4, galaxy clusters observed with Chandra. We detect evolution in all thre…
Determining the Cosmic Distance Scale from Interferometric Measurements of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
E. D. Reese, J. E. Carlstrom, M. Joy +3
We determine the distances to 18 galaxy clusters with redshifts ranging from z~0.14 to z~0.78 from a maximum likelihood joint analysis of 30 GHz interferometric Sunyaev-Zel'dovich…
The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Spectrum of Abell 2163
S. J. LaRoque, J. E. Carlstrom, E. D. Reese +4
We present an interferometric measurement of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) at 1 cm for the galaxy cluster Abell 2163. We combine this data point with previous measurements at…
The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect: Results and Future Prospects
J. E. Carlstrom, M. Joy, L. Grego +5
The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) provides a powerful tool for cosmological studies. Through recent advances in instrumentation and observational techniques it is now possible to…
Galaxy Cluster Gas Mass Fractions from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Measurements: Constraints on Omega_M
Laura Grego, John E. Carlstrom, Erik D. Reese +5
Using sensitive centimeter-wave receivers mounted on the Owens Valley Radio Observatory and Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland-Association millimeter arrays, we have obtained interferometr…
