The XMM Cluster Survey: Forecasting cosmological and cluster scaling-relation parameter constraints
Martin Sahlén, Pedro T. P. Viana, Andrew R. Liddle +16
We forecast the constraints on the values of sigma_8, Omega_m, and cluster scaling relation parameters which we expect to obtain from the XMM Cluster Survey (XCS). We assume a flat…
The XMM Cluster Survey: The Dynamical State of XMMXCS J2215.9-1738 at z=1.457
Matt Hilton, Chris A. Collins, S. Adam Stanford +12
We present new spectroscopic observations of the most distant X-ray selected galaxy cluster currently known, XMMXCS J2215.9-1738 at z=1.457, obtained with the DEIMOS instrument at…
The XMM Cluster Survey: A Massive Galaxy Cluster at z=1.45
S. A. Stanford, A. K. Romer, K. Sabirli +14
We report the discovery of XMMXCS J2215.9-1738, a massive galaxy cluster at z =1.45, which was found in the XMM Cluster Survey. The cluster candidate was initially identified as an…
XMM Cluster Survey: X-ray source identification using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Kate R. Land, Robert C. Nichol, Michael Davidson +8
[ABRIDGED] The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is predicted to detect thousands of clusters observed serendipitously in XMM-Newton pointings. We investigate automating optical follow-up o…
