We observed MS 1054-0321, the highest redshift cluster of galaxies in the Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS), with the Chandra ACIS-S detector. We find the X-ray temperature of the cluster to be 10.4^{+1.7}_{-1.5} keV, slightly lower…
XMM-Newton observations are presented for the z=0.83 cluster of galaxies MS1054-0321, the highest redshift cluster in the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS). The temperature inferred by the XMM-Newton data, T=7.2 (+0.7,…
We have observed the most distant (z=0.829) cluster of galaxies in the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey, with the ASCA and ROSAT satellites. We find an X-ray temperature of 12.3 +3.1/-2.2 keV for this cluster, and the ROSAT map…
We present Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) weak-lensing and Chandra X-ray analyses of MS 1054-0321 at z=0.83, the most distant and X-ray luminous cluster in the Einstein Extended Medium-Sensitivity Survey (EMSS).…
We present new Chandra X-ray observations of the luminous X-ray cluster, MS0451.6-0305, at z=0.5386. Spectral imaging data for the cluster are consistent with an isothermal cluster of 10.0 - 10.6 +/-1.6 keV and an Fe abundance of 0.32-0.40…
We present an analysis of Chandra observations of two high-redshift clusters of galaxies, ClJ1113.1-2615 at z=0.725 and ClJ0152.7-1357 at z=0.833. We find ClJ1113 to be relaxed with kT=4.3^{+0.5}_{-0.4}keV and a mass (within the virial…
A detailed X-ray analysis of an XMM-Newton observation of the high-redshift (z=0.89) galaxy cluster ClJ1226.9+3332 is presented. The X-ray temperature is found to be 11.5{+1.1}{-0.9}keV, the highest X-ray temperature of any cluster at…
The X-ray properties of a sample of high redshift (z>0.6), massive clusters observed with XMM-Newton and Chandra are described, including two exceptional systems. One, at z=0.89, has an X-ray temperature of T=11.5 (+1.1, -0.9) keV (the…
We present the Chandra study of the intermediately distant cluster of galaxies MS 0839.9+2938. By performing both the projected and deprojected spectral analyses, we find that the gas temperature is approximately constant at about 4 keV in…
We report on our ASCA, Keck, and ROSAT observations of MS1137.5+6625, the second most distant cluster of galaxies in the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS), at redshift 0.78. We now have X-ray temperatures, velocity…
We present deep Chandra and XMM obervations of the galaxy cluster RDCS1252.9-2927, which was selected from the ROSAT Deep Cluster Survey (RDCS) and confirmed by extensive spectroscopy with the VLT at redshift z=1.237. With the Chandra data,…
We report the analysis of the Chandra observation of XDCP J0044.0-2033, a massive, distant (z=1.579) galaxy cluster discovered in the XDCP survey. The total exposure time of 380 ks with Chandra ACIS-S provides the deepest X-ray observation…
We reanalyzed the ROSAT/HRI observation of MS1054-03, optimizing the channel HRI selection and including a new exposure of 68 ksec. From a wavelet analysis of the HRI image we identify the main cluster component and find evidence for…
During the course of a gravitational lensing survey of distant, X-ray selected, EMSS clusters of galaxies, we have studied 6 X-ray luminous (Lx > 5x10^44 h_{50}^{-2} erg s^{-1}) clusters at redshifts exceeding z=0.5. All of these clusters…
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 present spatially-resolved analysis of the temperature and gas density profiles in 6 relaxed galaxy clusters at z = 0.4-0.54 using long-exposure Chandra observations. We derived the total cluster masses within the radius r_500 assuming…
We measure the X-ray temperature (and luminosity) with ASCA of all but one cluster in the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS) high redshift (z > 0.3) sample. We compare these data to a complete sample of low redshift clusters…
We present a detailed spectral and spatial analysis of the galaxy cluster PKS 0745-191, using recent observations from the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The data provide information on the temperature and metallicity of the intracluster…
We present joint X-ray and optical observations of the high redshift (z~0.83) lensing cluster CLJ0152.7-1357 made with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Keck telescope. We confirm the existence of significant substructure at both X-ray…
We present the results of two (101 ks total) Chandra observations of the z=0.778 optically selected lensing cluster RCS022434-0002.5, along with weak lensing and dynamical analyses of this object. An X-ray spectrum extracted within R(2500)…
