Massive Halos in Millennium Gas Simulations: Multivariate Scaling Relations

R. Stanek, E. Rasia, A. E. Evrard +2

The joint likelihood of observable cluster signals reflects the astrophysical evolution of the coupled baryonic and dark matter components in massive halos, and its knowledge will…

The Effect of Gas Physics on the Halo Mass Function

R. Stanek, D. Rudd, A. E. Evrard

Cosmological tests based on cluster counts require accurate calibration of the space density of massive halos, but most calibrations to date have ignored complex gas physics associ…

The L_X--M relation of Clusters of Galaxies

E. S. Rykoff, A. E. Evrard, T. A. McKay +8

We present a new measurement of the scaling relation between X-ray luminosity and total mass for 17,000 galaxy clusters in the maxBCG cluster sample. Stacking sub-samples within fi…

Effects of Selection and Covariance on X-ray Scaling Relations of Galaxy Clusters

B. Nord, R. Stanek, E. Rasia +1

We explore how the behavior of galaxy cluster scaling relations are affected by flux-limited selection biases and intrinsic covariance among observable properties. Our models presu…

The X-Ray Luminosity--Mass Relation for Local Clusters of Galaxies

R. Stanek, A. E. Evrard, H. Böhringer +2

We investigate the relationship between soft \xray luminosity and mass for low redshift clusters of galaxies by comparing observed number counts to expectations of CDM cosmologi…

Searching for Bulges at the End of the Hubble Sequence

Torsten Boeker, Rebecca Stanek, Roeland P. van der Marel

We investigate the stellar disk properties of a sample of 19 nearby spiral galaxies with low inclination and late Hubble type (Scd or later). We combine our high-resolution HST I-b…
