Constraints on the total thermal energy within r 200c [see Eq. (40)] of hot gas in halos inferred from the break model analysis. We compare our constraints to the simulation-based predictions of Battaglia et al. [10], finding good agreement at high halo mass but differences at low mass.

Hot, ionized gas leaves an imprint on the cosmic microwave background via the thermal Sunyaev Zel'dovich (tSZ) effect. The cross-correlation of gravitational lensing (which traces the projected mass) with the tSZ effect (which traces the projected gas pressure) is a powerful probe of the thermal state of ionized baryons throughout the Universe, and...

The gravitational lensing signal produced by a galaxy or a galaxy cluster is determined by its total matter distribution, providing us with a way to directly constrain their dark matter content. State-of-the-art numerical simulations successfully reproduce many observed properties of galaxies and can be used as a source of mock observations and pre...

We review one of the most fruitful areas in cosmology today that bridge theory and data—the temporal growth of large-scale structure. We go over the growth’s physical foundations, and derive its behavior in simple cosmological models. While doing so, we explain how measurements of growth can be used to understand theory. We then review how some of...

Gravitational lensing is a topic of great application value in the field of astronomy. The properties and research methods of gravitational lensing are closely related to the geometric and relativistic characteristics of the background universe. This review focuses on the theoretical research and application of strong lenses and weak lenses. We fir...

Gravitational lensing in clusters of galaxies is one of the most powerful methods to probe the dark matter mass distribution inside such systems, after mapping the baryonic component, and test the currently accepted ɅCDM cosmological paradigm. With the advent of new high-resolution facilities such as the JWST, strong lensing (SL) is capable of prov...

In standard cosmology ordinary matter consists of only 5% of the universe. Alternative cosmology is developed including exclusively observable baryonic materials. In this model gravitation is given by a mediation process represented by spherically symmetric spatial circulations denoted as keplerons, which are emitted by massive objects. The velocit...
