I derive the mass-temperature relation and its time evolution for clusters of galaxies in different cosmologies by means of two different models. The first one is a modification and improvement of a model by Del Popolo & Gambera(1999),…
We derive correlations between X-ray temperature, luminosity, and gas mass for a sample of 22 distant, z>0.4, galaxy clusters observed with Chandra. We detect evolution in all three correlations between z>0.4 and the present epoch. In…
We use a representative sample of 65 galaxy clusters observed with the Einstein IPC to constrain the range of cluster X-ray morphologies. We develop and apply quantitative and reproducible measures to constrain the intrinsic distributions…
We present the cosmological parameters constraints obtained from the combination of galaxy cluster mass function measurements (Vikhlinin et al., 2009a,b) with new cosmological data obtained during last three years: updated measurements of…
Recently, peculiar velocity measurements became available for a new sample of galaxy clusters. From an accurately calibrated Tully-Fisher relation for spiral galaxies, we compute the rms cluster peculiar velocity and compare it to the…
(abridged) We present a new determination of the local temperature function of X-ray clusters. We use a new sample comprising fifty clusters for which temperature information is now available, making it the largest complete sample of its…
(Abriged) We present the analysis of the baryonic content of 52 X-ray luminous galaxy clusters observed with Chandra in the redshift range 0.3-1.273. We use the deprojected X-ray surface brightness profiles and the measured values of the…
The recent tension in the value of the cosmological parameter $S_8 \equiv \sigma_8(\Omega_M/0.3)^{1/2}$, which represents the amplitude of the matter density fluctuations of the universe, has not been resolved. In this work, we present…
The evolution with redshift of the temperature-luminosity relation of X-ray galaxy clusters is a key ingredient to break degeneracies in the interpretation of X-ray clusters redshift number counts. We therefore take advantage of the recent…
We show that the distribution of the sizes and temperatures of clusters can be used to constrain cosmological models. The size-temperature (ST) distribution predicted in a flat Gaussian cluster-abundance-normalized Omega_0=0.3 model agrees…
We discuss how the space of possible cosmological parameters is constrained by the angular diameter distance function, D_A(z), as measured using the SZ/X-ray method which combines Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect and X-ray brightness data for…
Standard cosmological analyses typically treat galaxy formation and cosmological parameter inference as decoupled problems, relying on population-level statistics such as clustering, lensing, or halo abundances. However, classical studies…
The number of rich galaxy clusters per unit volume is a strong function of Omega, the cosmological density parameter, and sigma_8, the linear extrapolation to z=0 of the density contrast in 8/h Mpc spheres. The CNOC cluster redshift survey…
The 3rd year WMAP results mark a shift in best fit values of cosmological parameters compared to the 1st year data and the concordance cosmological model. We test the consistency of the new results with previous constraints on cosmological…
Scaling relations of observed galaxy cluster properties are useful tools for constraining cosmological parameters as well as cluster formation histories. One of the key cosmological parameters, sigma8, is constrained using observed clusters…
Using mean relative peculiar velocity measurements for pairs of galaxies, we estimate the cosmological density parameter $\Omega_m$ and the amplitude of density fluctuations $\sigma_8$. Our results suggest that our statistic is a robust and…
We place constraints on the matter density of the Universe and the amplitude of clustering using measurements of the galaxy two-point correlation function from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We generate model predictions for different…
We analyse the BOOMERANG and MAXIMA results in the context of models with $\Omega_{\rm Total} = 1$ and $n_s = 1$. We attempt to constrain three other parameters---$h$, $\Omega_B$, and $\Omega_m$---from these observations. We show that: (a)…
The geometry of Freedman-Roberston-Walker cosmological models is fixed by the mass density parameter, Omega_M, and the cosmological constant, Omega_Lambda. The classical volume-redshift cosmological relation is a sensitive…
We place tight constraints on the main cosmological parameters of spatially flat cosmological models by using the recent angular clustering results of XMM-{\it Newton} soft (0.5-2 keV) X-ray sources (Ebrero et al. 2009a), which have a…
