We present an improved method for predicting the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect in galaxy clusters from spatially-resolved, spectroscopic X-ray data. Using the deprojected electron density and temperature profiles measured within a fraction…
Measurements of the Hubble constant to distant galaxy clusters using the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect are systematically low in comparison to values obtained by other means. These measurements usually assume a spherical isothermal $\beta$ model…
We have observed the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect in a sample of five moderate-redshift clusters with the Ryle Telescope, and used them in conjunction with X-ray imaging and spectral data from ROSAT and ASCA to measure the Hubble constant.…
The possibility of determining the value of the Hubble constant using observations of galaxy clusters in X-ray and microwave wavelengths through the Sunyaev Zel\'dovich (SZ) effect has long been known. Previous measurements have been…
A value of the Hubble constant has been determined from a comparison of the X-ray properties and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect of the distant rich cluster of galaxies CL0016+16. The cluster, as imaged by the ROSAT PSPC, is significantly…
Imaging of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in galaxy clusters combined with cluster plasma x-ray diagnostics can measure the cosmic distance scale to high redshift. Projecting the inverse-Compton scattering and x-ray emission along the…
Estimates of $H_0$ from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray surface brightness of galaxy clusters depends on the underlying cosmology. In the current $\Lambda$CDM flat cosmology, a possible technique to broke the degenerescency on the…
We have imaged the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect signals at 140 and 270 GHz towards ten galaxy clusters with Bolocam and AzTEC/ASTE. We also used Planck data to constrain the signal at large angular scales, Herschel-SPIRE images to…
We report 2.1 mm observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (S-Z) effect; these observations confirm our previous detection of a decrement in the Cosmic Microwave Background intensity towards the cluster Abell 2163. The S-Z data are analyzed…
We performed a systematic and comprehensive estimate of the Hubble constant $H_0$ via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich temperature decrement and the X-ray measurements for clusters up to the redshift $z=0.541$, with particular attention to its…
We perform a uniform, systematic analysis of a sample of 38 X-ray galaxy clusters with three different Chandra calibrations. The temperatures change systematically between calibrations. Cluster temperatures change on average by roughly ~6%…
We determine the distance to 38 clusters of galaxies in the redshift range 0.14 < z < 0.89 using X-ray data from Chandra and Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect data from the Owens Valley Radio Observatory and the Berkeley-Illinois-Maryland…
Values of the Hubble constant reported to date which are based on measurement of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect in clusters of galaxies are systematically lower than those derived by other methods (e.g., Cepheid variable stars, or the…
We present a determination of the Hubble constant from measurements of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect (SZE) in an orientation-unbiased sample of 7 z < 0.1 galaxy clusters. With improved X-ray models and a more accurate 32-GHz calibration, we…
In accelerating dark energy models, the estimates of H0 from Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray surface brightness of galaxy clusters may depend on the matter content (Omega_M), the curvature (Omega_K) and the equation of state…
It is well known that a combined analysis of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect and the X-ray emission observations can be used to determine the angular diameter distance to galaxy clusters, from which the Hubble constant is derived. The…
We present results of X-ray observations of a sample of 15 clusters selected via their imprint on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect. These clusters are a subset of the first SZ-selected…
We present a determination of the Hubble constant from measurements of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect (SZE) in an orientation-unbiased sample of 7 z < 0.1 galaxy clusters. With improved X-ray models and a more accurate 32-GHz calibration, we…
We have performed a series of simulations of clusters of galaxies on the basis of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics technique in a spatially-flat cold dark matter universe with $\Omega=0.3$, $\lambda=0.7$, and H_0=70 km/s/Mpc as one of…
Combined with X-ray imaging and spectral data, observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) can be used to determine direct distances to galaxy clusters. These distances are independent of the extragalactic distance ladder and do not…
