Comparison of X-ray and optically selected galaxy clusters in the XXL-N field
Abstract
Optically selected clusters from the CFHTLS and X-ray selected clusters from the intersecting XXL Survey are compared. We first compare the properties of the ∼100 galaxy clusters common to both catalogues in the redshift range of 0.1 < z < 1.2. Then we focus on the properties of the missed clusters on both sides and stress the impact of AGN contamination in this comparison. Finally scaling relations involving optical and X-ray quantities will be presented.
