Abstract
We present precise Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect measurements in the direction of 62 nearby galaxy clusters (z < 0.5) detected at high signal-to-noise in the first Planck all-sky dataset. The sample spans approximately a decade in total mass, 10¹⁴ M_☉ < M₅₀₀ < 10¹⁵ M_☉, where M₅₀₀ is the mass corresponding to a total density contrast of 500. Combining these high quality Planck measurements with deep XMM-Newton X-ray data, we investigate the relations between D²_A Y₅₀₀, the integrated Compton parameter due to the SZ effect, and the X-ray-derived gas mass M_g,500, temperature T_X, luminosity L_X,500, SZ signal analogue Y_X,500 = M_g,500 × T_X, and total mass M₅₀₀. After correction for the effect of selection bias on the scaling relations, we find results that are in excellent agreement with both X-ray predictions and recently-published ground-based data derived from smaller samples. The present data yield an exceptionally robust, high-quality local reference, and illustrate Planck’s unique capabilities for all-sky statistical studies of galaxy clusters.
