The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
read the original abstract
The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect causes a change in the apparent brightness of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation towards a cluster of galaxies or any other reservoir of hot plasma. Measurements of the effect provide distinctly different information about cluster properties than X-ray imaging data, while combining X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect data leads to new insights into the structures of cluster atmospheres. The effect is redshift-independent, and so provides a unique probe of the structure of the Universe on the largest scales. The present review discusses the theory of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect and collects published results for many clusters, presents the overall conclusions that may be drawn from the detections so far, and discusses the prospects for future research on the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effects.

Analytical covariances for catalogue-based pseudo-$C_\ell$s
A new analytic method computes disconnected covariance matrices for catalogue-based pseudo-Cℓ power spectra by smoothing source positions and treating self-pair shot noise exactly.

Shadows of Giants: Constraints on Stupendously Large Black Holes from Negative Sources against the Cosmic Microwave Background
Stupendously large black holes cast shadows on the CMB that rule out masses above 10^17 solar masses within the last scattering surface and limit their density parameter to below 10^-5 for masses 10^15 to 10^18 solar masses.

Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich cross-correlations with unWISE galaxies: disentangling radio contamination, dust properties, and electron pressure
Adding a fitted radio-emission component to tSZ×galaxy cross-spectra removes an apparent negative small-scale signal and yields spectra consistent with a standard halo model (9.5–11σ BIC preference for the radio term).

The Manticore Project II: Bayesian digital twins of cosmic structure across the SDSS and BOSS volumes
Manticore-Deep uses tiled Bayesian field-level inference on SDSS and BOSS data to produce posterior ensembles of 3D cosmic fields that are consistent with LCDM and validated by 7.4σ CMB lensing and 3.5σ kSZ detections.

Constraints on Halo Gas Profiles from Joint kSZ and Galaxy Clustering Analysis of ACT DR6 and CMASS
Joint kSZ-clustering analysis of ACT DR6 and CMASS yields a halo optical depth profile more extended than Websky simulations, suggesting stronger baryonic feedback.

Enhanced foreground mitigation in thermal SZ Compton-$y$ maps via polarization and deprojection
Combining temperature and polarization in a needlet ILC cuts residual Galactic contamination in the Planck thermal SZ y-map by about 40% (IRAS cross-correlation), with larger projected gains for future low-noise surveys.

Reconstructing the Thermal Sunyaev Zeldovich Power Spectrum from Planck using the ABS Method
The ABS method applied to Planck PR3 data yields a tSZ power spectrum amplitude 34% lower than the Planck 2015 best-fit when trispectrum is included.

Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich cross-correlations with unWISE galaxies: disentangling radio contamination, dust properties, and electron pressure
Radio contamination must be jointly fit with tSZ and CIB in unWISE-Planck/ACT cross-spectra; its inclusion yields positive signals to ℓ ≃ 6000 that match a two-parameter generalized NFW pressure profile.

The SKA View of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect from Massive Cosmic Halos
The SKA will enable high-resolution, high-sensitivity observations of the thermal SZ effect in massive halos, capturing both pressure substructures and large-scale ICM emission.
