The universal galaxy cluster pressure profile from a representative sample of nearby systems (REXCESS) and theYSZ–M500relation

M. Arnaud , G. W. Pratt , R. Piffaretti +3 more

We investigate the regularity of cluster pressure profiles with REXCESS, a representative sample of 33 local (z &lt; 0.2) clusters drawn from the REFLEX catalogue and observ...

The structural and scaling properties of nearby galaxy clusters

M. Arnaud , É. Pointecouteau , G. W. Pratt

Using a sample of ten nearby (z< 0.15), relaxed galaxy clusters in the temperature range [2-9] keV, we have investigated the scaling relation between the mass at various density...

Calibration of the galaxy cluster M500–Y$_{\sf X}$ relation with XMM-Newton

M. Arnaud , É. Pointecouteau , G. W. Pratt

The quantity Y_ X, the product of the X-ray temperature T_ X and gas mass M_ g, has recently been proposed as a robust low-scatter mass indicator for galaxy clusters. Using prec...
