Clusters Hiding Under Millimeter Sources (CHUMS) I: Extreme CHUMS

Harshda Saxena, Adam B. Mantz, Jack Sayers +2

Galaxy cluster abundance provides a powerful probe of the CDM model and enables precise constraints on cosmological parameters. Millimeter-wavelength surveys detect clusters thr…

The Cluster Evolutionary Reference Ensemble at Low- (CEREAL) Sample of Galaxy Clusters I: X-ray Morphological Properties and Demographics

Laurel White, Michael McDonald, Steven W. Allen +8

With rapid improvements in the assembly of large samples of galaxy clusters, we are approaching the ability to study clusters at . Evolutionary studies comparing these d…

A Generative Model for Realistic Galaxy Cluster X-ray Morphologies

Maya Benyas, Jordan Pfeifer, Adam B. Mantz +2

The X-ray morphologies of clusters of galaxies display significant variations, reflecting their dynamical histories and the nonlinear dependence of X-ray emissivity on the density…

Optical Photometric Indicators of Galaxy Cluster Relaxation

Madeline C. Casas, Ky Putnam, Adam B. Mantz +2

The most dynamically relaxed clusters of galaxies play a special role in cosmological studies as well as astrophysical studies of the intracluster medium (ICM) and active galactic…

The Remarkable Similarity of Massive Galaxy Clusters From z~0 to z~1.9

M. McDonald, S. W. Allen, M. Bayliss +12

We present the results of a Chandra X-ray survey of the 8 most massive galaxy clusters at z>1.2 in the South Pole Telescope 2500 deg^2 survey. We combine this sample with previousl…

Cosmology and astrophysics from relaxed galaxy clusters - IV: Robustly calibrating hydrostatic masses with weak lensing

D. E. Applegate, A. Mantz, S. W. Allen +8

This is the fourth in a series of papers studying the astrophysics and cosmology of massive, dynamically relaxed galaxy clusters. Here, we use measurements of weak gravitational le…

Measuring cosmic distances with galaxy clusters

S. W. Allen, A. B. Mantz, R. G. Morris +5

In addition to cosmological tests based on the mass function and clustering of galaxy clusters, which probe the growth of cosmic structure, nature offers two independent ways of us…
