Galaxy cluster analyses based on high-resolution observations of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect have become common in the last decade. We present PreProFit, the first publicly available code designed to fit the pressure profile of galaxy clusters from SZ data. PreProFit is based on a Bayesian forward-modelling approach, allows the analysis of data coming from different sources, adopts a flexible parametrization for the pressure profile, and fits the model to the data accounting for Abel integral, beam smearing, and transfer function filtering. PreProFit is computationally efficient, is extensively documented, has been released as an open source Python project, and was developed to be part of a joint analysis of X-ray and SZ data on galaxy clusters. PreProFit returns $chi^2$, model parameters and uncertainties, marginal and joint probability contours, diagnostic plots, and surface brightness radial profiles. PreProFit also allows the use of analytic approximations for the beam and transfer functions useful for feasibility studies.
We present ProFit, a new code for Bayesian two-dimensional photometric galaxy profile modelling. ProFit consists of a low-level C++ library (libprofit), accessible via a command-line interface and documented API, along with high-level R (ProFit) and
Much of the progress made in time-domain astronomy is accomplished by relating observational multi-wavelength time series data to models derived from our understanding of physical laws. This goal is typically accomplished by dividing the task in two:
We describe a new open source package for calculating properties of galaxy clusters, including NFW halo profiles with and without the effects of cluster miscentering. This pure-Python package, cluster-lensing, provides well-documented and easy-to-use
Ram-pressure stripping by the gaseous intra-cluster medium has been proposed as the dominant physical mechanism driving the rapid evolution of galaxies in dense environments. Detailed studies of this process have, however, largely been limited to rel
We fit a functional form for a universal ICM entropy profile to the scaled entropy profiles of a catalogue of X-ray galaxy cluster outskirts results, which are all relaxed cool core clusters at redshift below 0.25. We also investigate the functional
