The X-Ray Luminosity-Mass Relation for Local Clusters of Galaxies (2006, methodology): “Constraints from REFLEX counts We calculate likelihoods based on the expected survey counts in narrow flux and redshift bins, following the Poisson approach described in Pierpaoli et al. (2001).”
The Dark Side of the Halo Occupation Distribution (2003, methodology): “This normalization is suggested by several recent measurements (e.g., Borgani et al. 2001; Pierpaoli et al. 2001; Lahav et al. 2002; Schuecker et al. 2003; Jarvis et al. 2003).”
Toward a Precise Measurement of Matter Clustering: Lyα Forest Data at Redshifts 2-4 (2000, methodology): “If we used the recent Pierpaoli et al. (2001) formulation of the cluster constraint in place of Eke et al.’s, the zero points in equation (22) and (23) would be nearly identical while the Γ dependence would be slightly stronger.”
Optical and X-Ray Clusters as Tracers of the Supercluster-Void Network. I. Superclusters of Abell and X-Ray Clusters (2000, background): “We note that clusters from an e†ectively temperature-selected sample of X-ray clusters (Pierpaoli et al. 2001) are divided between superclusters of various richness as other samples of X-ray clusters : 84% of these clusters belong to superclusters (44% to very rich superclusters) and 16% of…”
CONSTRAINING THE SCATTER IN THE MASS–RICHNESS RELATION OF maxBCG CLUSTERS WITH WEAK LENSING AND X-RAY DATA (2008, background): “Use of a mass estimator with such low scatter should lead to improved estimates ofσ8 from X-ray cluster surveys (Pierpaoli et al. 2001; Reiprich& Böhringer 2002; Schuecker et al. 2003; Henry 2004; Stanek et al. 2006).”
The Mass Function (2002, result): “…8 is increased by clustering over the simple Poisson expectation (Evrard et al. 2002); however, for volumes of interest (Rmax > 300 h 1 Mpc) both the Poisson variance and the increase due to clustering are almost negligible compared to the other errors (see, e.g., Table 6 of Pierpaoli et al. 2001).”
The Cosmological Constant and Dark Energy (2002, background): “The 3 K cosmic microwave background temperature T (θ, φ) as a function of position in the sky usually is expressed 89 For recent discussions see Pierpaoli, Scott, and White (2001), Seljak (2001), Viana, Nichol, and Liddle (2002), Ikebe et al. (2002), Bahcall et al. (2002), and references therein.”
THE EVOLUTION OF X-RAY CLUSTERS OF GALAXIES (2002, methodology): “…≃ 0.4 − 0.6, almost independent of the presence of a cosmological constant term providing spatial flatness (e.g. Bahcall & Cen 1993, Eke et al. 1996, Girardi et al. 1998, Viana & Liddle 1999, Blanchard et al. 2000, Pierpaoli et al. 2001, Reiprich & Böhringer 2002, Seljak 2002, Viana et al. 2002).”
COSMOS: Three-dimensional Weak Lensing and the Growth of Structure (2007, background): “…not limited by systematic biases from unknown physics such as astrophysical bias (Dekel & Lahav 1999; Hoekstra et al. 2002; Smith et al. 2003a; Weinberg et al. 2004) or the mass-temperature relation for X-ray-selected galaxy clusters (Huterer &White 2002; Pierpaoli et al. 2001; Viana et al. 2002).”
COSMOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS FROM THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY MaxBCG CLUSTER CATALOG (2009, background): “…the ∆σ8 ≈ 0.05−0.10 level despite a spread in central values that range from σ8 ≈ 0.65 to σ8 ≈ 1.0 (Viana & Liddle 1996, 1999; Henry & Arnaud 1991; Henry 2000; Pierpaoli et al. 2001; Borgani et al. 2001; Seljak 2002; Viana et al. 2002; Schuecker et al. 2003; Allen et al. 2003; Bahcall et al. 2003;…”
Sample Variance Considerations for Cluster Surveys (2002, methodology): “…rms of matter fluctuations and is thus a very sensitive probe of the power spectrum normalization and matter density in the universe (e.g., Evrard 1989; Frenk et al. 1990; Henry & Arnaud 1991; Lilje 1992; White et al. 1993; Eke et al. 1996; Viana & Liddle 1996; Henry 2000; Pierpaoli et al. 2001).”
Cosmological constraints from the local X-ray luminosity function of the most X-ray-luminous galaxy clusters (2002, background): “Recently, significant effort has also been invested into measuring the local temperature function of clusters (e.g. Markevitch 1998; Pierpaoli et al. 2001; Ikebe et al. 2002), which offers a complementary method for determining cosmological parameters.”
