The XMM Cluster Survey: Cross-Calibration of eROSITA and XMM using Dark Energy Survey Y3 Galaxy Clusters

J. E. Pilling, D. J. Turner, P. A. Giles +9

We present the cross-calibration of the eROSITA and XMM telescopes, using galaxy clusters detected by redMaPPer from the first three years of Dark Energy Survey observations (DESY3…

The XMM Cluster Survey: Evidence for energy injection at high redshift from evolution of the X-ray luminosity-temperature relation

Matt Hilton, A. Kathy Romer, Scott T. Kay +21

We measure the evolution of the X-ray luminosity-temperature (L_X-T) relation since z~1.5 using a sample of 211 serendipitously detected galaxy clusters with spectroscopic redshift…

The XMM Cluster Survey: The Stellar Mass Assembly of Fossil Galaxies

Craig D. Harrison, Christopher J. Miller, Joseph W. Richards +13

This paper presents both the result of a search for fossil systems (FSs) within the XMM Cluster Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the results of a study of the stellar ma…

The Evolution of K* and the Halo Occupation Distribution since z=1.5: Observations vs. Simulations

Diego Capozzi, Chris A. Collins, John P. Stott +1

We study the evolution of the K-band luminosity function (LF) and the Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) using Subaru observations of 15 X-ray clusters at z=0.8-1.5 and compare the…
