In this paper we describe the state-of-the art status of multi-frequency detection techniques for compact sources in microwave astronomy. From the simplest cases where the spectral behaviour is well-known (i.e. thermal SZ clusters) to the more complex cases where there is little a priori information (i.e. polarized radio sources) we will review the main advances and the most recent results in the detection problem.

We report new measurements of millimeter-wave power spectra in the angular multipole range $2000 le ell le 11,000$ (angular scales $5^prime gtrsim theta gtrsim 1^prime$). By adding 95 and 150,GHz data from the low-noise 500 deg$^2$ SPTpol survey to t
he SPT-SZ three-frequency 2540 deg$^2$ survey, we substantially reduce the uncertainties in these bands. These power spectra include contributions from the primary cosmic microwave background, cosmic infrared background, radio galaxies, and thermal and kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effects. The data favor a thermal SZ (tSZ) power at 143,GHz of $D^{rm tSZ}_{3000} = 3.42 pm 0.54~ mu {rm K}^2$ and a kinematic SZ (kSZ) power of $D^{rm kSZ}_{3000} = 3.0 pm 1.0~ mu {rm K}^2$. This is the first measurement of kSZ power at $ge 3,sigma$. We study the implications of the measured kSZ power for the epoch of reionization, finding the duration of reionization to be $Delta z_{re} = 1.0^{+1.6}_{-0.7}$ ($Delta z_{re}< 4.1$ at 95% confidence), when combined with our previously published tSZ bispectrum measurement.
We present the weak lensing analysis of the Wide-Field Imager SZ Cluster of galaxy (WISCy) sample, a set of 12 clusters of galaxies selected for their Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect. After developing new and improved methods for background selection a
nd determination of geometric lensing scaling factors from absolute multi-band photometry in cluster fields, we compare the weak lensing mass estimate with public X-ray and SZ data. We find consistency with hydrostatic X-ray masses with no significant bias, no mass dependent bias and less than 20% intrinsic scatter and constrain fgas,500c=0.128+0.029-0.023. We independently calibrate the South Pole Telescope significance-mass relation and find consistency with previous results. The comparison of weak lensing mass and Planck Compton parameters, whether extracted self-consistently with a mass-observable relation (MOR) or using X-ray prior information on cluster size, shows significant discrepancies. The deviations from the MOR strongly correlate with cluster mass and redshift. This could be explained either by a significantly shallower than expected slope of Compton decrement versus mass and a corresponding problem in the previous X-ray based mass calibration, or a size or redshift dependent bias in SZ signal extraction.
We forecast the number of galaxy clusters that can be detected via the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) signals by future cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, primarily the wide area survey of the CMB-S4 experiment but also CMB-S4s smaller d
elensing survey and the proposed CMB-HD experiment. We predict that CMB-S4 will detect 75,000 clusters with its wide survey of $f_{rm sky}$ = 50% and 14,000 clusters with its deep survey of $f_{rm sky}$ = 3%. Of these, approximately 1350 clusters will be at $z ge 2$, a regime that is difficult to probe by optical or X-ray surveys. We assume CMB-HD will survey the same sky as the S4-Wide{}, and find that CMB-HD will detect $times3$ more overall and an order of magnitude more $z ge 2$ clusters than CMB-S4. These results include galactic and extragalactic foregrounds along with atmospheric and instrumental noise. Using CMB-cluster lensing to calibrate cluster tSZ-mass scaling relation, we combine cluster counts with primary CMB to obtain cosmological constraints for a two parameter extension of the standard model ($Lambda CDM+sum m_{ u}+w_{0}$). Besides constraining $sigma(w_{0})$ to $lesssim 1%$, we find that both surveys can enable a $sim 2.5-4.5sigma$ detection of $sum m_{ u}$, substantially strengthening CMB-only constraints. We also study the evolution of intracluster medium by modelling the cluster virialization ${rm v}(z)$ and find tight constraints from CMB-S4, with further factors of 3-4 improvement for CMB-HD.
Compact sources can cause scatter in the scaling relationships between the amplitude of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect (tSZE) in galaxy clusters and cluster mass. Estimates of the importance of this scatter vary - largely due to limited data on
sources in clusters at the frequencies at which tSZE cluster surveys operate. In this paper we present 90 GHz compact source measurements from a sample of 30 clusters observed using the MUSTANG2 instrument on the Green Bank Telescope. We present simulations of how a sources flux density, spectral index, and angular separation from the clusters center affect the measured tSZE in clusters detected by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). By comparing the MUSTANG2 measurements with these simulations we calibrate an empirical relationship between 1.4 GHz flux densities from radio surveys and source contamination in ACT tSZE measurements. We find 3 per cent of the ACT clusters have more than a 20 per cent decrease in Compton-y but another 3 per cent have a 10 per cent increase in the Compton-y due to the matched filters used to find clusters. As sources affect the measured tSZE signal and hence the likelihood that a cluster will be detected, testing the level of source contamination in the tSZE signal using a tSZE selected catalog is inherently biased. We confirm this by comparing the ACT tSZE catalog with optically and X-ray selected cluster catalogs. There is a strong case for a large, high resolution survey of clusters to better characterize their source population.
In this paper, we demonstrate a new method for fitting galaxy profiles which makes use of the full multi-wavelength data provided by modern large optical-near-infrared imaging surveys. We present a new version of GALAPAGOS, which utilises a recently-
developed multi-wavelength version of GALFIT, and enables the automated measurement of wavelength dependent Sersic profile parameters for very large samples of galaxies. Our new technique is extensively tested to assess the reliability of both pieces of software, GALFIT and GALAPAGOS on both real ugrizY JHK imaging data from the GAMA survey and simulated data made to the same specifications. We find that fitting galaxy light profiles with multi-wavelength data increases the stability and accuracy of the measured parameters, and hence produces more complete and meaningful multi-wavelength photometry than has been available previously. The improvement is particularly significant for magnitudes in low S/N bands and for structural parameters like half-light radius re and Sersic index n for which a prior is used by constraining these parameters to a polynomial as a function of wavelength. This allows the fitting routines to push the magnitude of galaxies for which sensible values can be derived to fainter limits. The technique utilises a smooth transition of galaxy parameters with wavelength, creating more physically meaningful transitions than single-band fitting and allows accurate interpolation between passbands, perfect for derivation of rest-frame values.
