The gas depletion factor in galaxy clusters: implication from Atacama Cosmology Telescope Polarization experiment measurements

Abstract The gas depletion factor $$\gamma (z)$$ γ(z) , i.e., the average ratio of the gas mass fraction to the cosmic mean baryon fraction of galaxy clusters, plays a very important role in the cosmological application of the gas mass fraction measurements. In this paper, using the newest catalog o...
