In X-rays we see clusters as one continuous entity

COSMOS Field XMM-Newton Most cosmological studies involving galaxy clusters are based on X-ray surveys What can we do with 100,000 clusters?

1. Cluster mass function N(M,z) depends mainly on the matter density Ωm and the amplitude of the primordial power spectrum σ8 2. Evolution N(M,z) gives sensitive constraints on DM and DE 3. Cluster power spectrum amplitude and shape depend on DM and DE 4. Baryonic wiggles due to acoustic oscillations at recombination give tight constraints on space curvature at different epochs 5. Cluster baryon fraction as function of z gives constraints on DM and DE 6. Clusters provide direct distance measurements due to combined X- ray and SZ-measurements Galaxy Clusters known today • ~ 200 – 300 from Einstein (1978 – 1981) • ~ 1000 published from ROSAT (1990 -1998) • ~ 1000 to be published from reanalysis of ROSAT data • ~200 – 300 from XMM-Newton archival data • + 10 – 15 with redshift > 1

The achievement the eROSITA primary (extragalactic) scientific goals requires the knowledge of the redshift of the X-ray sources. The X-ray spectrum can consistently provide the redshift only for a minority of the sources (~3-10% at ?) Substantial optical/near-IR follow-up (or companion surveys) required for the redshift identification and source characterization

→ Overview of relevant optical/near-IR facilities/surveys Conclusion

• eROSITA is completely approved and funded • Open issues concerning payload and orbit are solved • Project is in parts already in phase C/D • Ground software for data analysis (SASS and NRTA) is going on • Simulations are going on
