Detection of X-ray galaxy clusters based on the Kolmogorov method

Durret, F.; Gurzadyan, V. G.; Kashin, A. L. +3 more

The detection of clusters of galaxies in large surveys plays an important part in extragalactic astronomy, and particularly in cosmology, since cluster counts can give strong constraints on cosmological parameters. X-ray imaging is, in particular, a reliable means to discover new clusters, and large X-ray surveys are now available. Considering XMM…
