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…
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…

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…
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 use a sample of 14 massive, dynamically relaxed galaxy clusters to constrain the Hubble Constant, $H_0$, by combining X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect signals measured with Chandra, Planck and Bolocam. This is the first such…
We describe our algorithm for measuring the Hubble constant from Ryle Telescope (RT) interferometric observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect from a galaxy cluster and observation of the cluster X-ray emission. We analyse the…
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…
We determine the distances to 18 galaxy clusters with redshifts ranging from z~0.14 to z~0.78 from a maximum likelihood joint analysis of 30 GHz interferometric Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray observations. We model the…
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…
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…
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…
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…
We have mapped the high-redshift (z = 0.546) cluster Cl 0016+16 with the Ryle Telescope at 15 GHz. The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich decrement is clearly detected, and resolved. We combine our data with an X-ray image from ROSAT, and a gas temperature…
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 determine the distances to the z~0.55 galaxy clusters MS 0451.6-0305 and CL 0016+16 from a maximum likelihood joint fit to interferometric Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) and X-ray observations. We model the intracluster medium (ICM)…
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…
The Hubble constant, $H_0$, sets the scale of the size and age of the Universe and its determination from independent methods is still worthwhile to be investigated. In this article, by using the Sunyaev-Zel`dovich effect and X-ray surface…
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…
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…
