Seminaire Lagrange -- Alessandra Fumagalli (LMU) -- Cosmology with clustering of galaxy clusters

Cosmology with clustering of galaxy clusters

The clustering of galaxy clusters is a powerful tool in cosmology, capable of breaking parameter degeneracies when combined with other cosmological observables. 

In this talk I will discuss the current state of cluster clustering cosmology, with a focus on the redshift-space 2-point correlation function monopole. 

The aim is to highlight how cluster clustering, although not yet widely used, has the potential to become a highly competitive probe for the scientific exploitation of most recent and forthcoming cluster surveys.
