(Abridged) The amplitude of the thermal Sunyaev Zel'dovich effect (tSZ) power spectrum is extremely sensitive to the abundance of galaxy clusters and therefore to fundamental cosmological parameters that control their growth, such as…

The Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) signal is highly non-Gaussian, so the SZ power spectrum (along with the mean $y$ parameter) does not provide a complete description of the SZ effect. Therefore, SZ-based constraints on cosmological parameters and…
