The thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect directly measures the thermal pressure of free electrons integrated along the line of sight and thus contains valuable information on the thermal history of the universe. However, the redshift information is entangled in the projection along the line of sight. This projection effect severely degrades the power of the tSZ effect to reconstruct the thermal history. We investigate the tSZ tomography technique to recover this otherwise lost redshift information by cross correlating the tSZ effect with galaxies of known redshifts, or alternatively with matter distribution reconstructed from weak lensing tomography. We investigate in detail the 3D distribution of the gas thermal pressure and its relation with the matter distribution, through our adiabatic hydrodynamic simulation and the one with additional gastrophysics including radiative cooling, star formation and supernova feedback. (1) We find a strong correlation between the gas pressure and matter distribution, with a typical cross correlation coefficient r ~ 0.7 at k . 3h/Mpc and z < 2. This tight correlation will enable robust cross correlation measurement between SZ surveys such as Planck, ACT and SPT and lensing surveys such as DES and LSST, at ~20-100{sigma} level. (2) We propose a tomography technique to convert the measured cross correlation into the contribution from gas in each redshift bin to the tSZ power spectrum. Uncertainties in gastrophysics may affect the reconstruction at ~ 2% level, due to the ~ 1% impact of gastrophysics on r, found in our simulations. However, we find that the same gastrophysics affects the tSZ power spectrum at ~ 40% level, so it is robust to infer the gastrophysics from the reconstructed redshift resolved contribution.
The kinetic Sunyaev Zeldovich effect (kSZ) effect is a potentially powerful probe to the missing baryons. However, the kSZ signal is overwhelmed by various contaminations and the cosmological application is hampered by loss of redshift information du
Galaxy cluster merger shocks are the main agent for the thermalization of the intracluster medium and the energization of cosmic ray particles in it. Shock propagation changes the state of the tenuous intracluster plasma, and the corresponding signal
The angular power spectrum of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect is highly sensitive to cosmological parameters such as sigma_8 and Omega_m, but its use as a precision cosmological probe is hindered by the astrophysical uncertainties in model
The cosmic thermal history, quantified by the evolution of the mean thermal energy density in the universe, is driven by the growth of structures as baryons get shock heated in collapsing dark matter halos. This process can be probed by redshift-depe
A galaxy clusters own Sunyaev-Zel{}dovich (SZ) signal is known to be a major contaminant when reconstructing the clusters underlying lensing potential using cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature maps. In this work, we develop a modified quadr
