Constraints on Cosmological Parameters from Future Galaxy Cluster Surveys
Constraints on Cosmological Parameters from Future Galaxy Cluster Surveys
We study the expected redshift evolution of galaxy cluster abundance between 0 ≲ z ≲ 3 in different cosmologies, including the effects of the cosmic equation of state parameter w ≡ p/ρ. Using the halo mass function obtained in recent large-scale numerical simulations, we model the expected cluster yields in …
