A Serendipitous Galaxy Cluster Survey with XMM: Expected Catalog Properties and Scientific Applications
This paper describes a serendipitous galaxy cluster survey that we plan to conduct with the XMM X-ray satellite. We have modeled the expected properties of such a survey for three di†erent cosmological models, using an extended Press-Schechter formalism combined with a detailed characterization of the expected capabilities of the European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) camera on board XMM. We est...
متن کاملA Serendipitous Galaxy Cluster Survey with Xmm : Expected Catalogue Properties and Scientific Applications
This paper describes a serendipitous galaxy cluster survey that we plan to conduct with the XMM X– ray satellite. We have modeled the expected properties of such a survey for three different cosmological models, using an extended Press–Schechter (Press & Schechter 1974) formalism, combined with a detailed characterization of the expected capabilities of the EPIC camera on board XMM . We estimat...
متن کاملThe Chandra Multi - wavelength Project ( ChaMP ) : a serendipitous survey with Chandra archival data
The Chandra Multi-wavelength Project (ChaMP): a serendipitous survey with Chandra archival data. Abstract. The launch of the Chandra X-ray Observatory in July 1999 opened a new era in X-ray astronomy. Its unprecedented, < 0.5 " spatial resolution and low background are providing views of the X-ray sky 10-100 times fainter than previously possible. We have initiated a serendipitous survey (ChaMP...
متن کاملTracing Cosmic Evolution with an XMM Serendipitous Cluster Survey
This paper describes updated predictions, as a function of the underlying cosmological model, for a serendipitous galaxy cluster survey that we plan to conduct with the XMM-Newton X-ray Satellite. We have included the effects of the higher than anticipated internal background count rates and have expanded our predictions to include clusters detected at > 3σ. Even with the enhanced background le...
متن کاملThe XMM Cluster Survey : A Massive Galaxy
We report the discovery of XMMXCS J2215.9-1738, a massive galaxy cluster at z = 1.45, which was found in the XMM Cluster Survey. The cluster candidate was initially identified as an extended X-ray source in archival XMM data. Optical spectroscopy shows that 6 galaxies within a ∼60 arcsec diameter region lie at z = 1.45 ± 0.01. Model fits to the X-ray spectra of the extended emission yield kT = ...
