RNDR noise modeling in first-generation Single electron Sensitive Readout (SiSeRO) devices
Tonya L. Peshel, Abigail Y. Pan, Tanmoy Chattopadhyay +18
Flagship observatories require single-photon detectors with ultra-fast readout, sub-electron noise performance, and scalable large-format architectures. The X-ray Astronomy and Obs…
Initial Investigations of the Outskirts of XLSSC 122
Eleanore. B. Todd, Jon. P. Willis, Rebecca. E. A. Canning +7
We investigate the redshift 1.98 galaxy cluster XLSSC 122 using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) from the core of the cluster out to 3 Mpc, a scale equivalent to 10 times the R500…
Clusters Hiding Under Millimeter Sources (CHUMS) I: Extreme CHUMS
Harshda Saxena, Adam B. Mantz, Jack Sayers +2
Galaxy cluster abundance provides a powerful probe of the CDM model and enables precise constraints on cosmological parameters. Millimeter-wavelength surveys detect clusters th…
Ruminations Upon the Modeling of X-ray Foregrounds, Backgrounds and Faint Sources
Adam B. Mantz, Anthony M. Flores, Taweewat Somboonpanyakul +4
With the goal of extracting as much information as possible from Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of faint, diffuse sources such as galaxy clusters, as well as those of future X…
Measuring the Temperature of Extremely Hot Shock-Heated Gas in the Major Merger MACS J0717.5+3745 With Relativistic Corrections to the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
Benjamin J. Vaughan, Jack Sayers, Locke Spencer +11
The conversion of gravitational potential to kinetic energy results in an intracluster medium (ICM) gas with a characteristic temperature near 10 keV in the most massive galaxy clu…
The Cluster Evolutionary Reference Ensemble at Low- (CEREAL) Sample of Galaxy Clusters I: X-ray Morphological Properties and Demographics
Laurel White, Michael McDonald, Steven W. Allen +8
With rapid improvements in the assembly of large samples of galaxy clusters, we are approaching the ability to study clusters at . Evolutionary studies comparing these d…
