Deconvolution with Shapelets

Peter Melchior, Rene Andrae, Matteo Maturi +1

We seek to find a shapelet-based scheme for deconvolving galaxy images from the PSF which leads to unbiased shear measurements. Based on the analytic formulation of convolution in…

Statistical properties of SZ and X-ray cluster detections

F. Pace, M. Maturi, M. Bartelmann +4

Aims. We calibrate the number density, completeness, reliability and the lower mass limit of galaxy-cluster detections through their thermal SZ signal, and compare them to X-ray cl…

The actual Rees--Sciama effect from the Local Universe

M. Maturi, K. Dolag, A. Waelkens +2

Observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) have revealed an unexpected quadrupole-octopole alignment along a preferred axis pointing toward the Virgo cluster. We here in…

Camouflaged galactic CMB foregrounds: total and polarized contributions of the kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich effect

A. Waelkens, M. Maturi, T. Ensslin

We consider the role of the galactic kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich (SZ) effect as a CMB foreground. While the galactic thermal Sunyaev Zeldovich effect has previously been studied and…

The importance of the merging activity for the kinetic polarization of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signal from galaxy clusters

M. Maturi, L. Moscardini, P. Mazzotta +2

The polarization sensitivity of the upcoming millimetric observatories will open new possibilities for studying the properties of galaxy clusters and for using them as powerful cos…

BLOX: The Bonn Lensing, Optical, and X-ray selected galaxy clusters -- I. Cluster catalog construction

J. P. Dietrich, T. Erben, G. Lamer +4

The mass function of galaxy clusters is an important cosmological probe. Differences in the selection method could potentially lead to biases when determining the mass function. Fr…
