We present the first comparison of virial masses of galaxy clusters with their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect (SZE) signals. We study 15 clusters from the Hectospec Cluster Survey (HeCS) with MMT/Hectospec spectroscopy and published SZE signals.…

In the coming years, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) measurements can dramatically improve our understanding of the Intergalactic Medium (IGM) and the role of feedback processes on galaxy formation, allowing us to calibrate important astrophysical…

The galaxy phase-space distribution in galaxy clusters provides insights into the formation and evolution of cluster galaxies, and it can also be used to measure cluster mass profiles. We present a dynamical study based on $\sim$3000…

We investigate the impact of gas evolution on the expected yields from deep Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect surveys as well as on the expected SZ effect contribution to fine scale anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background. The…

We present a novel approach to identify galaxy clusters that are undergoing a merger using a deep learning approach. This paper uses massive galaxy clusters spanning $0 \leq z \leq 2$ from \textsc{The Three Hundred} project, a suite of…

The thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect and the X-ray emission offer separate and highly complementary probes of the thermodynamics of the intracluster medium, particularly on their radial dependence. We already released \texttt{JoXSZ},…

The Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect was first predicted nearly five decades ago, but has only recently become a mature tool for performing high resolution studies of the warm and hot ionized gas in and between galaxies, groups, and clusters.…

We present scaling relations between the integrated Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect (SZE) signal, $Y_{\rm SZ}$, its X-ray analogue, $Y_{\rm X}\equiv M_{\rm gas}T_{\rm X}$, and total mass, $M_{\rm tot}$, for the 45 galaxy clusters in the Bolocam…

The hot gas in clusters of galaxies creates a distinctive spectral distortion in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) via the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. To first order, the shape of the spectral distortion is fixed, but relativistic…

Based on the photometric redshift catalog of Zou H. et al. (2019), we apply a fast clustering algorithm to identify 540,432 galaxy clusters at $z\lesssim1$ in the DESI legacy imaging surveys, which cover a sky area of about 20,000 deg$^2$.…

In this work we calculate the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect due to the $e^+e^-$ from dark matter (DM) annihilation in galaxy clusters. Two candidates of DM particle, (1) the weakly-interacting massive particle (WIMP) and (2) the light dark…
