SUMMARY:Samuel Flender (ANL) - Cosmology and the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich sky: Observations and simulations
DESCRIPTION:The Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) effect is an important observational signature of galaxy clusters\, the largest objects in the Universe today. In particular\, the pairwise kinematic SZ signal probes the matter-velocity correlation function\, scaled by the average optical depth of galaxy clusters\, and is thus an interesting probe both from a cosmological and astrophysical point of view. In this talk\, I will give an overview about our current cosmological understanding\, highlighting the role of the SZ effect. I will present the current landscape of kinematic SZ measurements\, including a recent measurement by the South Pole Telescope collaboration and the Dark Energy Survey collaboration\, as well as insights from new\, state-of-the-art simulations\, and recent progress in the modeling of gas profiles of galaxy clusters.
