Non-Gaussianity of secondary anisotropies from ACTPol and Planck

William R. Coulton, Simone Aiola, Nicholas Battaglia +22

Most secondary sources of cosmic microwave background anisotropy (radio sources, dusty galaxies -DSFGs-, thermal Sunyaev Zel'dovich -tSZ- distortions from hot gas, and gravitationa…

Beyond CMB cosmic variance limits on reionization with the polarized SZ effect

Joel Meyers, P. Daniel Meerburg, Alexander van Engelen +1

Upcoming cosmic microwave background (CMB) surveys will soon make the first detection of the polarized Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect, the linear polarization generated by the scatterin…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: The Two-Season ACTPol Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Selected Cluster Catalog

Matt Hilton, Matthew Hasselfield, Cristóbal Sifón +41

We present a catalog of 182 galaxy clusters detected through the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope in a contiguous 987.5 deg field. The clusters we…

Fundamental Physics from Future Weak-Lensing Calibrated Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Galaxy Cluster Counts

Mathew Madhavacheril, Nicholas Battaglia, Hironao Miyatake

Future high-resolution measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) will produce catalogs of tens of thousands of galaxy clusters through the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (t…

Planck Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Cluster Mass Calibration using Hyper Suprime-Cam Weak Lensing

Elinor Medezinski, Nicholas Battaglia, Keiichi Umetsu +9

Using 140 deg Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey data, we stack the weak lensing (WL) signal around five Planck clusters found within the footprint. This yields a 15$σ…

Future constraints on halo thermodynamics from combined Sunyaev-Zel'dovich measurements

Nicholas Battaglia, Simone Ferraro, Emmanuel Schaan +1

The improving sensitivity of measurements of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect opens a new window into the thermodynamic properties of the baryons in halos. We propose a m…
