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 XV: Evidence for dry merger driven BCG growth in XXL-100-GC X-ray clusters
S. Lavoie, J. P. Willis, J. Democles +33
The growth of brightest cluster galaxies is closely related to the properties of their host cluster. We present evidence for dry mergers as the dominant source of BCG mass growth a…
The XXL Survey X: K-band luminosity - weak-lensing mass relation for groups and clusters of galaxies
F. Ziparo, G. P. Smith, S. L. Mulroy +15
We present the K-band luminosity-halo mass relation, , for a subsample of 20 of the 100 brightest clusters in the XXL Survey observed with WIRCam at the Canad…
The XXL Survey VII: A supercluster of galaxies at z=0.43
E. Pompei, C. Adami, D. Eckert +15
The XXL Survey is the largest homogeneous and contiguous survey carried out with XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50 square degrees distributed over two fields, it primarily investi…
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…
The XXL Survey IV. Mass-temperature relation of the bright cluster sample
Maggie Lieu, Graham P. Smith, Paul A. Giles +18
The XXL survey is the largest survey carried out by XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50deg, the survey contains galaxy clusters out to a redshift 2 and to an X-r…
The XXL Survey. XIII. Baryon content of the bright cluster sample
D. Eckert, S. Ettori, J. Coupon +20
Traditionally, galaxy clusters have been expected to retain all the material accreted since their formation epoch. For this reason, their matter content should be representative of…
