Cosmological Studies With A Large-Area X-ray Telescope
A. Vikhlinin, S. W. Allen, M. Arnaud +11
A moderate investment of observing time with the International X-ray Observatory to study high-redshift galaxy clusters detected in future large-scale surveys, will provide cosmolo…
Galaxy Cluster Astrophysics and Cosmology: Questions and Opportunities for the Coming Decade
S. T. Myers, C. Pfrommer, J. Aguirre +21
We are learning much about how structure forms, in particular how clusters as nodes in the cosmic web evolve and accrete matter, and about the physical processes within these objec…
Towards the 2020 vision of the baryon content of galaxy groups and clusters
A. Kravtsov, A. Gonzalez, A. Vikhlinin +12
Groups and clusters of galaxies occupy a special position in the hierarchy of large-scale cosmic structures because they are the largest and the most massive (from ~10^13 Msun to o…
Testing X-ray Measurements of Galaxy Clusters with Cosmological Simulations
Daisuke Nagai, Alexey Vikhlinin, Andrey V. Kravtsov
X-ray observations of galaxy clusters potentially provide powerful cosmological probes if systematics due to our incomplete knowledge of the intracluster medium (ICM) physics are u…
"The Perfect Slope": A new robust low-scatter X-ray mass indicator for clusters of galaxies
Alexey Vikhlinin, Andrey V. Kravtsov, Daisuke Nagai
This presentation is a Moriond version of our recent paper (Kravtsov, Vikhlinin & Nagai astro-ph/0603205) where we discussed X-ray proxies for the total cluster mass, including the…
