AMICO galaxy clusters in KiDS-DR3: constraints on ΛCDM from extreme value statistics

We constrain the ΛCDM cosmological parameter σ8 by applying the extreme value statistics for galaxy cluster mass on the AMICO KiDS-DR3 catalogue. We sample the posterior distribution of the parameters by considering the likelihood of observing the largest cluster mass value in a sample of Nobs = 364...

Description
Summary:We constrain the ΛCDM cosmological parameter σ8 by applying the extreme value statistics for galaxy cluster mass on the AMICO KiDS-DR3 catalogue. We sample the posterior distribution of the parameters by considering the likelihood of observing the largest cluster mass value in a sample of Nobs = 3644 clusters with intrinsic richness λ* > 20 in the redshift range z ∈ [0.10, 0.60]. We obtain $\sigma _{8}=0.90_{-0.18}^{+0.20}$, consistent within 1σ with the measurements obtained by the Planck collaboration and with previous results from cluster cosmology exploiting AMICO KiDS-DR3. The constraints could improve by applying this method to forthcoming missions, such as Euclid and LSST, which are expected to deliver thousands of distant and massive clusters.
