The XXL Survey XXIV. The final detection pipeline
L. Faccioli, F. Pacaud, J. -L. Sauvageot +7
A well characterised detection pipeline is an important ingredient for X-ray cluster surveys. We present the final development of the XXL Survey pipeline. The pipeline optimally us…
The cosmological analysis of X-ray cluster surveys: IV. Testing ASpiX with template-based cosmological simulations
A. Valotti, M. Pierre, A. Farahi +5
Following extensive tests on analytical toy-catalogues (paper III), we present the results of a more realistic study over a 711 deg2 template-based cosmological simulation. Dark ma…
The XXL survey: first results and future
M. Pierre, C. Adami, M. Birkinshaw +108
The XXL survey currently covers two 25 sq. deg. patches with XMM observations of ~10ks. We summarise the scientific results associated with the first release of the XXL data set, t…
The XXL Survey: I. Scientific motivations - XMM-Newton observing plan - Follow-up observations and simulation programme
M. Pierre, F. Pacaud, C. Adami +89
We present the XXL Survey, the largest XMM programme totaling some 6.9 Ms to date and involving an international consortium of roughly 100 members. The XXL Survey covers two extrag…
Precision cosmology and 7Li data
G. La Vacca, A. Valotti, S. A. Bonometto
At variance from 2H, 3He and 4He abundances, 7Li abundance data yield an extra constraint to cosmological parameters, in top of those deriving from CMB, BAO, SNIa or H0 data. This…
