COMPARISON OF OPTICAL AND X-RAY MASS ESTIMATES OF THE CHANDRA GALAXY CLUSTERS AT Z < 0.1

We used the optical data taken from SDSS DR7 galaxy and group catalog to determine the optical mass of 37 nearer Chandra galaxy clusters for comparison with the X-ray mass estimates. Using the assumption that mass follows the galaxy distribution, we computed the mass of each cluster by applying the...
