Abstract (from CDS):

We confront the universal pressure profile (UPP) proposed. with the recent measurement of the cross-correlation function of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (tSZ) effect from Planck and weak gravitational lensing measurement from the Red Cluster Sequence Lensing Survey. By using the halo model, we calculate the prediction of ξy–κ (lensing convergence and Compton-y parameter) and ξy–γt_^ (lensing shear and Compton-y parameter) and fit the UPP parameters by using the observational data. We find consistent UPP parameters when fixing the cosmology to either WMAP 9-yr or Planck 2018 best-fitting values. The best constrained parameter is the pressure profile concentration c500 = r500/rs, for which we find c500 = 2.68+1.46–0.96 (WMAP-9) and c500 = 1.91+1.07–0.65 (Planck-2018) for the ξy–γt_^ estimator. The shape index for the intermediate radius region α parameter is constrained to α=1.75+1.29–0.77 and α= 1.65+0.74–0.5 for WMAP-9 and Planck-2018 cosmologies, respectively. Propagating the uncertainties of the UPP parameters to pressure profiles results in a factor of 3 uncertainty in the shape and magnitude. Further investigation shows that most of the signal of the cross-correlation comes from the low-redshift, inner halo profile (r <= rvir/2) with halo mass in the range of 1014-1015 M☉, suggesting that this is the major regime that constitutes the cross-correlation signal between weak lensing and tSZ.
