Cosmological Constraints from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-Selected Clusters with X-ray Observations in the First 178 Square Degrees of the South Pole Telescope Survey

B. A. Benson, T. de Haan, J. P. Dudley +73

We use measurements from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) cluster survey in combination with X-ray measurements to constrain cosmological parameters. We prese…

The XMM-BCS galaxy cluster survey: I. The X-ray selected cluster catalog from the initial 6 deg

R. Šuhada, J. Song, H. Böhringer +19

The XMM-Newton - Blanco Cosmology Survey project (XMM-BCS) is a coordinated X-ray, optical and mid-infrared cluster survey in a field also covered by Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect surv…

The X-ray luminous galaxy cluster population at 0.9<z<~1.6 as revealed by the XMM-Newton Distant Cluster Project

R. Fassbender, H. Boehringer, A. Nastasi +12

We present the largest sample of spectroscopically confirmed X-ray luminous high-redshift galaxy clusters to date comprising 22 systems in the range 0.9<z<\sim1.6 as part of the XM…

Exploring the galaxy cluster-group transition regime at high redshifts: Physical properties of two newly detected z > 1 systems

R. Šuhada, R. Fassbender, A. Nastasi +11

Context: Multi-wavelength surveys for clusters of galaxies are opening a window on the elusive high-redshift (z>1) cluster population. Well controlled statistical samples of distan…

The X-ray luminous galaxy cluster XMMU J1007.4+1237 at z=1.56 - The dawn of starburst activity in cluster cores

Rene Fassbender, Alessandro Nastasi, Hans Böhringer +12

Observational galaxy cluster studies at z>1.5 probe the formation of the first massive M>10^14 Msun dark matter halos, the early thermal history of the hot ICM, and the emergence o…
