Dynamical Studies of the Globular Cluster Systems around the Giant Elliptical Galaxies NGC4636 and NGC1399
(2011-08-02)
Dark matter studies in elliptical galaxies were long hampered by the lack of suitable dynamical tracers. The advent of 8 m-class telescopes equipped with multi-object spectrographs has made it possible to use globular ...
Weak gravitational lensing analyses of clusters of galaxies
(2011-04-04)
Comprising the most massive gravitationally bound and relaxed structures in the Universe, galaxy clusters are essential in providing a deeper understanding of the properties of dark matter. Being cosmologically young ...
Observations of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect towards Clusters of Galaxies with the APEX Telescope
(2009-09-14)
Results of 150 GHz continuum observations of several X-ray bright clusters of galaxies in the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, carried out using the APEX-SZ bolometer array on the APEX telescope, are presented. Follow-up ...
Exploring Dark Matter Properties from the Smallest to the Largest Scales
(2004)
One of the main problems in cosmology is to understand the formation and evolution of galaxies, galaxy clusters, and large-scale structure. Whereas the basics of the current Cold Dark Matter (CDM) paradigm for structure ...
