Galaxy Cluster Abundance Evolution and Cosmological Parameters
We use the observed evolution of the galaxy cluster X-ray integral temperature distribution function between z = 0.05 and z = 0.32 in an attempt to constrain the value of the density parameter, Ω0, for both open and spatially-flat universes. We conclude that when all the most important sources of possible error, both in the observational data and in the theoretical modelling, are taken into acc...
متن کاملCosmological Signatures in Galaxy Cluster Structures
We study substructure in X-ray clusters of galaxies by application of a set of statistics, the power ratios of Buote & Tsai (1995), to a simulated cluster and in the context of a simple analytic model for merger events. The simulation involves a newly developed code for performing high resolution gravity and gas dynamics simulations in cosmological volumes. Thesis Supervisor: Edmund Bertschinge...
متن کاملCosmological Constraints from Galaxy Cluster Velocity Statistics
Future microwave sky surveys will have the sensitivity to detect the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich signal from moving galaxy clusters, thus providing a direct measurement of their line-of-sight peculiar velocity. We show that cluster peculiar velocity statistics applied to foreseeable surveys will put significant constraints on fundamental cosmological parameters. We consider three statistical qu...
متن کاملRedshift Evolution of Galaxy Cluster
The number of rich galaxy clusters per unit volume is a strong function of , the cosmological density parameter, and 8 , the linear extrapolation to z = 0 of the density contrast in 8h ?1 Mpc spheres. The CNOC cluster redshift survey provides a sample of clusters whose average mass prooles are accurately known, which enables a secure association between cluster numbers and the ltered density pe...
متن کاملCosmological evolution and hierarchical galaxy formation
We calculate the rate at which dark matter halos merge to form higher mass systems. Two complementary derivations using Press-Schechter theory are given, both of which result in the same equation for the formation rate. First, a derivation using the properties of the Brownian random walks within the framework of Press-Schechter theory is presented. We then use Bayes’ theorem to obtain the same ...
