4 The SZ Effect S.Colafrancesco 2007, NewAR, 51, 394 Beyond the Standard Lore of the SZ effect y(pe,ℓ) = Comptonization factor ğ(ν,t0,pe) = Spectral distribution Thermal I(x) I0(x) Irel(x) Relativistic thermal NR e - relativistic e- ν kt 4 e2 ν me c ν 4 2 γ ν 3

5 SZE: Observational fact This This

6 The origin of the SZ effect Non-coherent Compton Scattering Fall-out effect of the Cold War 1957 A.S. Kompaneets publishes his Compton scattering Fokker-Planck equation (derived by A.S. Kompaneets in Soviet Union 1950 but was classified due to nuclear bomb research until 1956) 1 Ya. B. Zel dovich & R. Sunyaev derive the thermal SZ effect (i.e., applied the Kompaneets eq.)

7 SZE: general relativistic derivation [Colafrancesco et al. 2003, A&A, 397, 27] Intensity change Pressure Thermal Relativistic Spectral shape Redistribution function P( s) = dpf ( p) P (s; p) e 0 s

8 SZE from various e- populations SZth SZwarm SZkin SZE amplitude: degeneracy in physical parameters SZrel SZE spectra: sensitivity to physical parameters SZDM P( s) = 0 dpf e ( p ) Ps ( s; p) = hν KTCMB

9 Physics with the SZE: thermal plasma (kt0 ) 3 I th = 2 yth g ( x) 2 (hc) T d ne kte me c 2 X 0,th a + bθ e + cθ e2 k T θ e B e2 me c g (x) yth = σ Temperature Pressure Density The best way to measure Te are: - SZE at high frequencies (> 300 GHz) - spectral slope around 220 GHz [Colafrancesco, Prokhorov, Dogiel 2009]

10 Astrophysics & Cosmology The SZE is independent of redshift and therefore it is an optimal tool for Cosmological applications Standard-rod physical effect ~ n kt X-rays ~n2(kt)1/2 X-rays X-rays The SZE depends directly on the electron distribution in the atmospheres of cosmic structures and therefore it is an optimal tool for Astrophysical applications
