Joint analysis of X-ray and Sunyaev Zel'dovich observations of galaxy clusters using an analytic model of the intra-cluster medium

Nicole Hasler, Esra Bulbul, Massimiliano Bonamente +19

We perform a joint analysis of X-ray and Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) effect data using an analytic model that describes the gas properties of galaxy clusters. The joint analysis allows…

Comparison of Pressure Profiles of Massive Relaxed Galaxy Clusters using Sunyaev-Zel'dovich and X-ray Data

Massimiliano Bonamente, Nicole Hasler, Esra Bulbul +19

We present Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect observations of a sample of 25 massive relaxed galaxy clusters observed with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Array (SZA), an 8-element interferomet…

LoCuSS: The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect and Weak Lensing Mass Scaling Relation

Daniel P. Marrone, Graham P. Smith, Nobuhiro Okabe +22

We present the first weak-lensing-based scaling relation between galaxy cluster mass, M_wl, and integrated Compton parameter Y_sph. Observations of 18 galaxy clusters at z~0.2 were…

The Effect of Helium Sedimentation on Galaxy Cluster Masses and Scaling Relations

G. Esra Bulbul, Nicole Hasler, Max Bonamente +4

Recent theoretical studies predict that the inner regions of galaxy clusters may have an enhanced helium abundance due to sedimentation over the cluster lifetime. If sedimentation…

Sunyaev Zel'dovich Effect Observations of Strong Lensing Galaxy Clusters: Probing the Over-Concentration Problem

Megan B. Gralla, Keren Sharon, Michael D. Gladders +23

We have measured the Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) effect for a sample of ten strong lensing selected galaxy clusters using the Sunyaev Zel'dovich Array (SZA). The SZA is sensitive to st…

Galaxy Clusters at z>=1: Gas Constraints from the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Array

T. L. Culverhouse, M. Bonamente, E. Bulbul +20

We present gas constraints from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect measurements in a sample of eleven X-ray and infrared (IR) selected galaxy clusters at z >=1, using data from the Sun…

An Analytic Model of the Physical Properties of Galaxy Clusters

G. Esra Bulbul, Nicole Hasler, Massimiliano Bonamente +1

We introduce an analytic model of the diffuse intergalactic medium in galaxy clusters based on a polytropic equation of state for the gas in hydrostatic equilibrium with the cluste…

LoCuSS: A Comparison of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect and Gravitational Lensing Measurements of Galaxy Clusters

Daniel P. Marrone, Graham P. Smith, Johan Richard +19

We present the first measurement of the relationship between the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect signal and the mass of galaxy clusters that uses gravitational lensing to measure cluster…

Radio Sources Toward Galaxy Clusters at 30 GHz

K. Coble, M. Bonamente, J. E. Carlstrom +7

Extra-galactic radio sources are a significant contaminant in cosmic microwave background and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect experiments. Deep interferometric observations with the BIMA…
