Multi-wavelength Cluster Cosmology

在这个项目中，我们将探讨标准宇宙学模型的两个主要挑战：是什么导致了宇宙膨胀的后期加速，以及暗物质的性质是什么。对星系团的X射线观测将是我们活动的核心。在大多数情况下，获得光学/近红外成像调查也是必不可少的。一些必要的数据集已经在我们的处理（感谢我们以前的工作XMM集群调查，XCS和暗能量调查，DES）。其他卫星将在项目期间提供（感谢eROSITA全天巡天，eRASS和空间和时间遗产巡天，LSST）。该项目将涉及X射线支持从DES和LSST探测到的星系团中提取宇宙学参数，并通过ICM和DM对“第五种力”的不同反应来测试修正的重力模型。

In this project, we will approach two major challenges to the standard cosmological model: what is responsible for the late time acceleration of the expansion of the Universe, and what is the nature of dark matter. X-ray observations of clusters of galaxies will be at the core of our activity. In most cases, access to Optical/near-IR imaging surveys will also be essential. Some of the necessary data sets are already at our disposal (thanks to our previous work on the XMM Cluster Survey, XCS, and the Dark Energy Survey, DES). Others will become available during the duration of the project (thanks to the eROSITA All Sky Survey, eRASS, and the Legacy Survey of Space and Time, LSST). The project will involve X-ray support to the extraction of cosmological parameters from clusters detected by DES and LSST and testing modified gravity models through the differing responses of the ICM and the DM to a ``fifth force''.
