The standard self-similar model of galaxy cluster formation predicts that the X-ray luminosity-temperature ($L_X$-$T_X$) relation of galaxy clusters should have been $L_X\propto T_X^2$ in absence of the baryonic physics, such as radiative…
We investigate the luminosity-temperature ($L$-$T$) relation of galaxy clusters as a probe for testing modified gravity (MG) theories, focusing on $f(R)$ gravity and symmetron models. Using an improved semi-analytic framework that…
Thermodynamic profiles from X-ray and millimetre observations of galaxy clusters are often compared under the simplifying assumptions of smooth, spherically symmetric intracluster medium. These approximations lead to expected discrepancies…
We introduce a new test to study the Cosmological Principle with galaxy clusters. Galaxy clusters exhibit a tight correlation between the luminosity and temperature of the X-ray-emitting intracluster medium. While the luminosity measurement…
The isotropy of the late Universe is an assumption greatly used in astronomy. However, many studies have recently reported deviations from isotropy with a definitive conclusion yet to be made. New, independent methods to robustly test the…
Combining conservation of energy throughout nearly-spherical collapse of galaxy clusters with the virial theorem, we derive the mass-temperature relation for X-ray clusters of galaxies $T=CM^{2/3}$. The normalization factor $C$ and the…
There has been extensive recent progress in X-ray observations of clusters of galaxies with the analysis of the entire ASCA database and recent new results from Beppo-SAX, Chandra, and XMM-Newton. The temperature profiles of most clusters…
We present a sample of 29 galaxy clusters from the XMM-LSS survey over an area of some 5deg2 out to a redshift of z=1.05. The sample clusters, which represent about half of the X-ray clusters identified in the region, follow well defined…
We present a new investigation of the mass-temperature (\MTrelation) relation of 22 nearby clusters based on the analysis of their ROSAT X-ray surface brightness profiles ($S_{X}(r)$) and their ASCA emission weighted temperatures. Two…
The relationships between the X-ray determined bolometric luminosity Lx, the temperature T of the intracluster gas, and the optical measured velocity dispersion sigma of the cluster galaxies are updated for galaxy clusters using the largest…
In this paper we re-visit the observational relation between X-ray luminosity and temperature for high-z galaxy clusters and compare it with the local L_X-T and with theoretical models. To these ends we use a sample of 17 clusters extracted…
We investigate the relationship between soft \xray luminosity and mass for low redshift clusters of galaxies by comparing observed number counts to expectations of $\Lambda$CDM cosmologies. We use a three-parameter model for the conditional…
We continue the study of the first sample of shear-selected clusters (Wittman et al. 2006) from the initial 8.6 square degrees of the Deep Lens Survey (DLS, Wittman et al. 2002); a sample with well-defined selection criteria corresponding…
We present the observed relation between the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature decrement due to the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect and the X-ray luminosity of galaxy clusters. We discuss this relation in terms of the cluster…
We examine the relationship between the mass and x-ray gas temperature of galaxy clusters using data drawn from the literature. Simple theoretical arguments suggest that the mass of a cluster is related to the x-ray temperature as $M…
We present measurements of the masses of 20 X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies at intermediate redshifts, determined from a weak lensing analysis of deep archival R-band data obtained using the Canada-France-Hawaii-Telescope. Compared to…
We present a morphological study of 35 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters at 0.15<z<0.3, selected in a similar manner to the Local Cluster Substructure Survey (LoCuSS), for which deep XMM-Newton observations are available. We characterise the…
The XXL survey is the largest survey carried out by XMM-Newton. Covering an area of 50deg$^2$, the survey contains $\sim450$ galaxy clusters out to a redshift $\sim$2 and to an X-ray flux limit of $\sim5\times10^{-15}erg\,s^{-1}cm^{-2}$.…
(Abridged) This is the second in a series of papers in which we derive simultaneous constraints on cosmology and X-ray scaling relations using observations of massive, X-ray flux-selected galaxy clusters. The data set consists of 238…
We present an estimate of the bolometric X-ray luminosity - velocity dispersion L_x - sigma_v relation measured from a new, large and homogeneous sample of 171 low redshift, X-ray selected galaxy clusters. The linear fitting of log(L_x) -…
