LoCuSS: The infall of X-ray groups onto massive clusters
C. P. Haines, A. Finoguenov, G. P. Smith +10
Galaxy clusters are expected to form hierarchically in a LCDM universe, growing primarily through mergers with lower mass clusters and the continual accretion of group-mass halos.…
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. II. The bright cluster sample: catalogue and luminosity function
F. Pacaud, N. Clerc, P. A. Giles +40
Context. The XXL Survey is the largest survey carried out by the XMM-Newton satellite and covers a total area of 50 square degrees distributed over two fields. It primarily aims at…
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 III. Luminosity-temperature relation of the Bright Cluster Sample
P. A. Giles, B. J. Maughan, F. Pacaud +13
The XXL Survey is the largest homogeneous survey carried out with XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50 deg, the survey contains several hundred galaxy clusters out to a redshif…
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…
LoCuSS: Testing hydrostatic equilibrium in galaxy clusters
G. P. Smith, P. Mazzotta, N. Okabe +17
We test the assumption of hydrostatic equilibrium in an X-ray luminosity selected sample of 50 galaxy clusters at from the Local Cluster Substructure Survey (LoCuSS).…
Reversal or no reversal: the evolution of the star formation rate-density relation up to z~1.6
F. Ziparo, P. Popesso, A. Finoguenov +27
We investigate the evolution of the star formation rate (SFR)-density relation in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS) and the Great Observatories Origin Deep Survey (GOOD…
First simultaneous optical/near-infrared imaging of an X-ray selected, high-redshift cluster of galaxies with GROND: the galaxy population of XMMU J0338.7+0030 at z=1.1
D. Pierini, R. Suhada, R. Fassbender +28
The XMM-Newton Distant Cluster Project is a serendipitous survey for clusters of galaxies at redshifts z>=0.8 based on deep archival XMM-Newton observations. ... Low-significance c…
In the whirlpool's coils: tracing substructure from combined optical/X-ray data in the galaxy cluster A1300
F. Ziparo, F. G. Braglia, D. Pierini +3
Structure formation is thought to act via hierarchical mergers and accretion of smaller systems driven by gravity with dark matter dominating the gravitational field. Combining X-r…
Two fossil groups of galaxies at z~0.4 in the COSMOS: accelerated stellar-mass build-up, different progenitors
D. Pierini, S. Giodini, A. Finoguenov +12
We report on 2 fossil groups of galaxies at z=0.425 and 0.372 discovered in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) area. Selected as X-ray extended sources, they have total masses (M…
