Sunyaev–Zel'dovich profiles and scaling relations: modelling effects and observational biases
Sunyaev–Zel'dovich profiles and scaling relations: modelling effects and observational biases
We use high-resolution hydrodynamic resimulations to investigate the properties of the thermal Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (SZ) effect from galaxy clusters. We compare results obtained using different physical models for the intracluster medium (ICM), and show how they modify the SZ emission in terms of cluster profiles and scaling relations. We also produce …
