Constraints on dark energy models from galaxy clusters with multiple arcs
We make an exploratory study of how well dark energy models can be constrained using lensed arcs at different redshifts behind cluster lenses. Arcs trace the critical curves of clusters, and the growth of critical curves with source redshift is sensitive to the dark-energy equation of state. Using analytical models and numerically simulated clusters, we explore the key factors involved in using...
متن کاملConstraints on dark energy from Chandra observations of the largest relaxed galaxy clusters
We present constraints on the mean dark energy density, ΩX and dark energy equation of state parameter, wX, based on Chandra measurements of the X-ray gas mass fraction in 26 X-ray luminous, dynamically relaxed galaxy clusters spanning the redshift range 0.07 < z < 0.9. Under the assumption that the X-ray gas mass fraction measured within r2500 is constant with redshift and using only weak prio...
متن کاملX–Ray galaxy clusters: constraints on models of galaxy formation
We present a self–consistent approach to the modeling of X–ray clusters of galaxies in a flat universe. Employing the Press & Schechter (1974) formalism to derive the mass function and relating the observable properties of clusters to their virial mass allows us to study the cluster X–ray distribution functions and their evolution with redshift. This approach differs from some results based on ...
متن کاملDark Energy Constratins from Lensing-Detected Galaxy Clusters
We study the ability of weak-lensing surveys to detect galaxy clusters and constrain cosmological parameters, in particular, the equation of state of dark energy. There are two major sources of noise for weak-lensing cluster measurements: the ‘‘shape noise’’ from the intrinsic ellipticities of galaxies; and the large scale projection noise. We produce a filter for the shear field which optimize...
متن کاملStrong constraints on cosmology from galaxy clusters
In this work we show how galaxy clusters can be used to discriminate among different cosmological models. We have used available X-ray & optical cluster data to constrain the cosmological parameters as well as the cluster scaling relations, T − M and Lx − T. We also show the power of future SZE data to constrain even more these parameters. In several works, authors have used different cluster d...
