Can we learn something more/different from LSS/clusters? (b) Toward precision cosmology with clusters (mostly X-ray) Current status of parameter constraints (σ 8 Ω m ) What's needed to do any better? (c) Cluster cosmology or astrophysics: the role of hydro simulations.

8 Why clusters are useful for cosmology?

9 Because they are the largest collapsed Why clusters are useful for cosmology? structures in the Universe!

10 Because they are the largest collapsed Why clusters are useful for cosmology? structures in the Universe! (a) Gas fraction f gas : IF clusters are fair containers of cosmic baryons (see talks by S. Allen and S. Ettori) Local clusters: Ω m once Ω b known from BBN and/or CMB (weak dependence on H 0 ). Distant clusters: f gas (z) = f gas [d A (H 0,Ω m,ω DE,w)] = f gas (z=0) geometry. (b) Mass function of clusters and its evolution: Direct probe of σ 8, i.e. P(k) amplitude at the cluster mass scale; Dynamical (not geometrical) probe of cosmology, through the linear growth rate of perturbations: D(z) = D(z; Ω m,ω DE,w) (c) Large-scale distribution and clustering of clusters: Geometrial probe through the P(k) shape (assuming the DM content); Cosmology with clustering evolution along the light-cone: ξ(r,z), P(k,z)

11 SB & Guzzo '01 Evolution of hot (T> 3 kev) clusters

12 What's needed for cosmology with clusters? (a) A reliable and flexible tool to compute the mass function for a given cosmological model (b) An efficient method to find clusters: sensitivity to detect clusters at high redshift negligible impact of false and spurious detections. (c) A precise knowledge of the selection function searching volume within which a cluster is found. : sky-coverage : luminosity distance : flux : max. z for the given f lim (d) A reliable method to measure cluster masses better if given by the observable on which cluster selection is based.

13 The Press-Schechter Approach and Beyond Assumptions: Spherical collapse + Gaussian density fluctuations d c : critical density constrast for spherical collapse (=1.69 for EdS) p(d c,m): Gaussian probability for a perturbation of mass M to exceed d c Mass variance at the scale M and redshift z for the filter function W M (k). D(z)=D(Ω m,ω DE,w): linear growth rate of density fluctuations. Too many low-m and too few high-m halos predicted; Need to account for the non-spherical nature of collapse (e.g. Sheth & Tormen 1999)

14 Toward a Universal Mass Function Testing against N-body over a large dynamical range (a) Corrections to the PS MF can be found, which has still a universal (i.e. model-independent) shape. Jenkins et al. 2001

15 Toward a Universal Mass Function Testing against N-body over a large dynamical range Evrard et al. '02 (a) Corrections to the PS MF can be found, which has still a universal (i.e. Model-independent) shape. (b) Agreement with the simulated MF always within <10% at the cluster mass-scale.

16 Toward a Universal Mass Function Testing against N-body over a large dynamical range White '02 (a) Corrections to the PS MF can be found, which has still a universal (i.e. Model-independent) shape (Jenkins et al. '01). (b) Agreement with the simulated MF always within <10% at the cluster mass-scale (Evrard et al. '02). (c) Effects of cosmic variance may be comparable to statistical uncertainties (Hu & Kravtsov '02, White '02).

23 Why X-ray X clusters? Search volume of X-ray surveys (1) Clusters are sharply defined in X-ray: dl X /dv ρ g 2 T 1/2 (2) Sky coverage and search volume are well defined. RBN '02 (3) L X and, even better, T X, are closely related to the cluster collapsed mass.

27 The Cluster X-ray X LF Remarkable agreement among all the local surveys (unlike for the galaxy LF) Robust reference for the evolution of the cluster population!

28 The Cluster X-ray X LF Remarkable agreement among all the local surveys (unlike for the galaxy LF) Bulk of cluster population already in place at z 1. Moderate negative evolution in the bright-end. Robust reference for the evolution of the cluster population!

29 How to estimate cluster masses? (a) Dynamics of the collisionless component (galaxies) Assuming virialization of a spherical system: s V : velocity dispersion of member galaxies. R V : virial radius. Applied to: ENACS, CNOC, 2dFGRS, SDSS (b) Dynamics of the collisional component (gas) Hydrostatic equilibrium + isothermal b-model: β = β spec = µm p σ r / k B T ( from M-T of simulations) k B T from X-ray and SZ observations. (c) Weak and strong gravitational lensing (d) Phenomenological scaling relations (talks by S. Ettori) L X ~ T a (1+z) A ; L X ~ M g (1+z) G

30 The observed L -T X X relation The L X -T T evolution: Mushotzky & Scharf (1996) SB, Rosati et al. (2001) Holden et al. (2002) Novicki et al. (2002) Ettori et al. (2003) Steepening below T~1 kev. No evidence for evol. out to z ~1 (cf. Vikhlinin et al. 2002) See talk by S. Ettori

31 The mass-temperature relation Isothermal gas + β-model (Finoguenov, Reiprich & Boehringer '01) Resolved T X profiles with Beppo-SAX (Ettori, De Grandi & Molendi '02) ~40% lower normalization than expected from simulations: β spec 0.7 vs. β spec 1 Possibly steeper for groups. Nature of the scatter: (a) intrinsic vs. observational (b) how is it distributed? Need to be extended to distant clusters (see talk by S.Ettori)

32 The observed M-LM X relation Reiprich & Boehringer 02 ROSAT + ASCA Hydrostatic equil. + isothermal -model Resolved T X profiles with Beppo-SAX (Ettori, De Grandi & Molendi '02) Well-defined relation with ~20-40% scatter! To be extended at high z with Chandra/XMM data (Ettori et al., in prep)

33 Constraints from flux- limited surveys SB, Rosati et al. '01 Rosati, SB & Norman '03 RDCS 160 sq. deg RDCS: 104 clusters F lim = cgs out to z = 0.83 (Rosati, SB, Norman 2002) 160 sq.deg.: 200 clusters F lim = cgs out to z = 0.58 (Vikhlinin et al. '98, Mullis et al. '03) Remarkable agreement!!

34 Constraints from flux- limited surveys SB, Rosati et al. '01 Rosati, SB & Norman '03 Results dependent on ICM physics... Ω m <0.6 at >3σ! σ 8 somewhat small: σ 8 = 0.72 ± 0.05 (Ω m = 0.3) for the reference analysis. cf. poster by Vauclair et al. and talk by A. Blanchard

49 The L X -T X Relation at z=0 The observed L X -T X is reproduced at the cluster scale, T X >2 kev. Up-scattered points due to the contribution of ''cooling cores''. No bending at the scale of groups, T X <1 kev. Need to increase the feedback efficiency? Account for the contribution from cooling cores.

50 The mass-temperature relation at z=0 Normalization ~30%higher than observed: No much effect of cooling in increasing T X in central regions. Only possible by further steepening T X profiles! Small but sizeable effect when using emissivity in a finite energy band.

51 Observational biases in the M-T X scaling? β-model for ρ gas (r). T X profiles from polytropic model: T(r) ~ [ρ[ gas (r)] γ-1 Mass computed from hydrostatic equilibrium: Actual M-T relation possibly higher than measured: β spec spec 1 Need to mimick more closely the observational setup.

54 The cluster XLF Local XLF: (a) Excess of low L X system Simulated groups are too bright. (b) Excellent agreement in the XLF bright end. Lack of evolution of the XLF faint end out to z=1. In line with observational results from deep surveys.

56 The cluster XTF Local XTF: Good agreement with the XTF by Ikebe et al.('03) The local XTF supports σ 8 0.8

57 The cluster XTF Local XTF: Good agreement with the XTF by Ikebe et al.('03) The local XTF supports σ The XTF of distant clusters: Lack of significant evolution for T<3 kev out to z=1. Marginal evidence for a deficit of hotter systems.

58 Concluding remarks: (a) Galaxy clusters ARE cosmological probes! Evolution of the mass function: 0.2 < m < 0.5 at > 3 c.l. = ± 0.05 (stat.) ± 0.05 (syst.) for m =0.3 Tension with WMAP results? Lower than σ 8 from high from high-l C l excess? (b) What's needed for precision (post-wmap) cosmology? ( m and 8 to < 10%, dark energy, non-gaussianity...) Mass estimates from as many as possible independent methods (X-ray, σ v, lensing, SZ) for ~100 clusters out to z~0.5. Brute force: massive surveys (~10 4 clusters) to kill systematics with statistics. Use hydro symulations to better understand what a cluster is.
