This model is directly applicable to the analysis of X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect observations from the cluster core to the virial radius, with 5 global parameters and 3 parameters describing the cluster core. We validate the model using Chandra X-ray observations of two polytropic clusters, MS 1137.5+6625 and CL J1226.9+3332, and two cool core clusters, Abell 1835 and Abell 2204.
