Low frequency region --- temperature decrement High frequency region --- temperature increment Thermal SZ effect determines ΔT CMB . Determination of the Hubble constant with CG --- Thermal SZ effect of CG --- X-ray intensity of CG : diameter of CG along the line of sight 6/33

Assumption: CG is spherical. 7/33 With the redshift observation, the Hubble constant H 0 is determined (H 0 =v/D A ). WMAP data

Advantages of the SZ effects: ・ Total radiation intensity is redshift independent! E CMB ∝ (1+z) 4 (energy density of CMB) D A ∝ (1+z) 2 (angular diameter distance) I total ∝ E CMB /D 2 --- z-dependences cancel out! ・ Determination of H 0, cosmological constants, peculiar velocity field, etc. Disadvantages of the SZ effects: ・ Assumption of the spherical symmetry for CG ・ Small signals ΔT CMB ~ 10 - 3 Chandra and XMM-Newton have opened a new era for precise observation of the SZ effect. 8/33
