An SZ/X-ray galaxy cluster model and the X-ray follow-up of the Planck clusters
A. Chamballu, J. G. Bartlett, J. -B. Melin +1
Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) cluster surveys will become an important cosmological tool over next few years, and it will be essential to relate these new surveys to cluster surveys in o…
Component separation methods for the Planck mission
S. M. Leach, J. -F. Cardoso, C. Baccigalupi +27
The Planck satellite will map the full sky at nine frequencies from 30 to 857 GHz. The CMB intensity and polarization that are its prime targets are contaminated by foreground emis…
Catalog Extraction in SZ Cluster Surveys: a matched filter approach
J. -B. Melin, J. G. Bartlett, J. Delabrouille
We present a method based on matched multifrequency filters for extracting cluster catalogs from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) surveys. We evaluate its performance in terms of completene…
The XMM-LSS cluster sample and its cosmological applications
M. Pierre, F. Pacaud, the XMM-LSS consortium
We present the X-ray source detection procedure that we have developed for the purpose of assembling and characterizing controlled samples of cluster of galaxies for the XMM Large…
The Selection Function of SZ Cluster Surveys
J. -B. Melin, J. G. Bartlett, J. Delabrouille
We study the nature of cluster selection in Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) surveys, focusing on single frequency observations and using Monte Carlo simulations incorporating instrumental…
Simulations of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich maps and their applications
J. Delabrouille, J. -B. Melin, J. G. Bartlett
We describe a fast method to simulate in a semi-analytical way consistent maps of the thermal, kinetic and polarised Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect, featuring both cluster spatial corre…
