We present an analysis of the 2-point correlation function, of the X-ray Brightest Abell-type Cluster sample (XBACs; Ebeling et al. 1998) and of the cosmological constraints that it provides. If \xi(r) is modelled as a power-law, we find…

We compute the cluster auto-correlation function $\xi_{cc}(r)$ of an X-ray flux limited sample of Abell clusters (XBACs, \cite{ebe}). For the total XBACs sample we find a power-law fit $\xi_{cc}=(r/r_0)^{\gamma}$ with $r_0=21.1$ Mpc…
