Advantages of X-ray Clusters
Can be well modeled X-rays are optically thin
thermal radiation from material nearly in
collisional equilibrium Not as simple as the
microwave background Simpler than supernovae,
galaxies or AGN Fewer projection effects with
X-ray selection X-rays are more peaked than
galaxy distribution Fewer foreground/background
objects Confining hot gas requires a real object
of high mass Close relation of X-ray observable
to cluster mass X-ray bright so seen to
cosmological distances Crucial 0 lt z lt 1
interval where universal expansion changed from
deceleration to acceleration
4
Comparison of dark matter and x-ray cluster and
group distribution every bound system visible
in the numerical simulation is detected in the
x-ray band - bright regions are massive
clusters, dimmer regions groups,
X-ray emission in simulation

Cluster Evolution and Cosmology
Borgani and Guzzo2001
X-ray properties of clusters trace mass
  • The observables are the x-ray luminosity,
    temperature correlation function and their
    evolution with z
  • x-ray properties directly connect to mass (Allen
    2002)

Instrument HeritageABRIXAS and XMM
  • DUO has a high degree of heritage
  • 7 X-ray mirrors, focal length 1.6m
  • Total field of view 3.3 sq. degs.
  • Effective resolution 45 arcs.
  • 7 PN-CCDs, 0.3 10 keV

Observing Strategy (eff. gt 60)
  • DUO Deep SurveyDUO Deep Survey 150-DUO Wide
    Survey 6000 deg2
  • hWithin SDSS Northern Galactic Cap
  • h8000 clusters with M gt 2x1014 MO (kTgt3.5 keV)
    complete to z0.7
  • hRedshifts already available
  • DUO Deep Survey 176deg2
  • h1800 clusters, about 200 at zgt1.0
  • hSouthern Sky (ping-pong operation)
  • hSynergy with large SZ-Surveys
  • hOptical follow-up from VLT
  • Operations Scan both regions in 2 years
