We constrain Omega_m through a maximum likelihood analysis of temperatures and redshifts of the high-redshift clusters from the EMSS. We simultaneously fit the low-redshift Markevitch (1998) sample (an all-sky sample from ROSAT with z=0.04-…

We study the ROSAT surface brightness profiles of a sample of 25 distant (0.3<z<0.83) hot (kT>3.5keV) clusters. For both open and flat cosmological models, the derived emission measure profiles are scaled according to the self-similar model…

Observations and cosmological simulations show galaxy clusters as a family of nearly self-similar objects with properties that can be described by scaling relations as a function of e.g. mass and time. Here we study the scaling relations…

(Abridged) We present in this paper a sample of 14 nearby clusters of galaxies observed with the ROSAT/PSPC. We only select clusters with low galactic nH in order to trace the X-ray emitting intra-cluster medium (ICM) out to large radii. We…

We have performed a uniform analysis of 79 clusters of galaxies with the ROSAT HRI and ASCA to study the X-ray structure and evolution of clusters in the redshift range 0.1 < z < 1. We determined the average X-ray temperatures and the…

We analyzed the luminosity-temperature-mass of gas (L_{X} - T - M_{g}) relation for sample of galaxy clusters that have been observed by the Chandra satellite. We used 21 high-redshift clusters (0.4 < z < 1.4). We assumed a power-law…

The observed evolution of the galaxy cluster X-ray integral temperature distribution function between $z=0.05$ and $z=0.32$ is used in an attempt to constrain the value of the density parameter, $\Omega_{0}$, for both open and…

We characterize the X-ray luminosity--temperature ($L_{\rm X}-T$) relation using a sample of 353 clusters and groups of galaxies with temperatures in excess of 1 keV, spanning the redshift range $0.1 < z < 0.6$, the largest ever assembled…

We present the X-ray properties and scaling relations of a flux-limited morphology-unbiased sample of 12 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at redshift around 0.2 based on XMM-Newton observations. The scaled radial profiles are characterized by…

We present constraints on the scaling relations of galaxy cluster X-ray luminosity, temperature and gas mass (and derived quantities) with mass and redshift, employing masses from robust weak gravitational lensing measurements. These are…

We study the evolution of the ICM with a sample of 70 galaxy clusters spanning 0.18 < z < 1.24. We find that X-ray luminosity and ICM mass at a fixed temperature evolve with redshift in a manner inconsistent with the standard self-similar…
