A matched filter technique is applied to the Planck all-sky Compton y-parameter map to measure the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect produced by galaxy groups of different halo masses selected from large redshift surveys in the low-z Universe. Reliable halo mass estimates are available for all the groups, which allows us to bin groups of similar halo masses to investigate how the tSZ effect depends on halo mass over a large mass range. Filters are simultaneously matched for all groups to minimize projection effects. We find that the integrated y-parameter and the hot gas content it implies are consistent with the predictions of the universal pressure profile model only for massive groups above $10^{14},{rm M}_odot$, but much lower than the model prediction for low-mass groups. The halo mass dependence found is in good agreement with the predictions of a set of simulations that include strong AGN feedback, but simulations including only supernova feedback significantly over predict the hot gas contents in galaxy groups. Our results suggest that hot gas in galaxy groups is either effectively ejected or in phases much below the virial temperatures of the host halos.

We examine the thermal energy contents of the intergalactic medium (IGM) over three orders of magnitude in both mass density and gas temperature using thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (tSZE). The analysis is based on {it Planck} tSZE map and the cosm
ic density field, reconstructed for the SDSS DR7 volume and sampled on a grid of cubic cells of $(1h^{-1}{rm Mpc})^3$, together with a matched filter technique employed to maximize the signal-to-noise. Our results show that the pressure - density relation of the IGM is roughly a power law given by an adiabatic equation of state, with an indication of steepening at densities higher than about $10$ times the mean density of the universe. The implied average gas temperature is $sim 10^4,{rm K}$ in regions of mean density, $rho_{rm m} sim {overlinerho}_{rm m}$, increasing to about $10^5,{rm K}$ for $rho_{rm m} sim 10,{overlinerho}_{rm m}$, and to $>10^{6},{rm K}$ for $rho_{rm m} sim 100,{overlinerho}_{rm m}$. At a given density, the thermal energy content of the IGM is also found to be higher in regions of stronger tidal fields, likely due to shock heating by the formation of large scale structure and/or feedback from galaxies and AGNs. A comparison of the results with hydrodynamic simulations suggests that the current data can already provide interesting constraints on galaxy formation.
We present the detection of the kinetic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect (kSZE) signals from groups of galaxies as a function of halo mass down to $log (M_{500}/{rm M_odot}) sim 12.3$, using the {it Planck} CMB maps and stacking about $40,000$ galaxy systems
with known positions, halo masses, and peculiar velocities. The signals from groups of different mass are constrained simultaneously to take care of projection effects of nearby halos. The total kSZE flux within halos estimated implies that the gas fraction in halos is about the universal baryon fraction, even in low-mass halos, indicating that the `missing baryons are found. Various tests performed show that our results are robust against systematic effects, such as contamination by infrared/radio sources and background variations, beam-size effects and contributions from halo exteriors. Combined with the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect, our results indicate that the `missing baryons associated with galaxy groups are contained in warm-hot media with temperatures between $10^5$ and $10^6,{rm K}$.

Much of the baryons in galaxy groups are thought to have been driven out to large distances ($gtrsim$$R_{500}$) by feedback, but there are few constraining observations of this extended gas. This work presents the resolved Sunyaev--Zeldovich (SZ) pro
files for a stacked sample of 10 nearby galaxy groups within the mass range log$_{10}(M_{500}[M_{odot}]) = 13.6 -13.9$. We measured the SZ profiles using the publicly available $y$-map from the Planck Collaboration as well as our own $y$-maps constructed from more rece
This paper continues a series in which we intend to show how all observables of galaxy clusters can be combined to recover the two-dimensional, projected gravitational potential of individual clusters. Our goal is to develop a non-parametric algorith
m for joint cluster reconstruction taking all cluster observables into account. In this paper, we begin with the relation between the Compton-y parameter and the Newtonian gravitational potential, assuming hydrostatic equilibrium and a polytropic stratification of the intracluster gas. We show how Richardson-Lucy deconvolution can be used to convert the intensity change of the CMB due to the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect into an estimate for the two-dimensional gravitational potential. Synthetic data simulated with characteristics of the ALMA telescope show that the two-dimensional potential of a cluster with mass 5*10^14 M_sun/h at redshift 0.2 is possible with an error of < 5% between the cluster centre and a radius r < 0.9 Mpc/h.
