An X-ray Extremely wide-field Spectroscopic Surveyor (XESS, or "chess")
W. P. Maksym, M. Ulmer, S. Friedrich +20
We propose an X-ray observatory, the X-ray Extremely wide-field Spectroscopic Surveyor (XESS, pronounced "Chess") to bring high energy resolution X-ray spectroscopy into the era of…
The Accretion Explorer Interferometer (AEI) Phase I NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts Final Report
Kimberly A. Weaver, Jenna M. Cann, Kenneth Carpenter +30
We must create superb X-ray images to understand the detailed physical processes behind some of the most powerful astronomical objects. The need to achieve this capability has been…
The evolution of the cluster optical galaxy luminosity function between z=0.4 and 0.9 in the DAFT/FADA survey
Nicolas Martinet, Florence Durret, Loic Guennou +8
We compute optical galaxy luminosity functions (GLFs) in the B, V, R, and I rest-frame bands for one of the largest medium-to-high-redshift (0.4 < z < 0.9) cluster samples to date…
Galaxy cluster searches based on photometric redshifts in the four CFHTLS Wide fields
F. Durret, C. Adami, A. Cappi +19
We have developed a method for detecting clusters in large imaging surveys, based on the detection of structures in galaxy density maps made in slices of photometric redshifts. Thi…
The Radial Dependence of Temperature and Iron Abundance: Galaxy Clusters from z=0.14 to z=0.89
S. Ehlert, M. P. Ulmer
Using archival Chandra and XMM-Newton data on 35 galaxy clusters, we measured average temperature and metallicity profiles for clusters based separated by temperature, cooling time…
Central Matter Distributions in Rich Clusters of Galaxies from z~0 to z~0.5
C. Adami, A. Mazure, M. P. Ulmer +1
We have analyzed the galaxy number density and luminosity density profiles of rich clusters of galaxies from redshifts z=0 to z=0.5. We show that the luminosity profile computed wi…
