SPT-CL J0205–5829: A z = 1.32 EVOLVED MASSIVE GALAXY CLUSTER IN THE SOUTH POLE TELESCOPE SUNYAEV-ZEL’DOVICH EFFECT SURVEY

The galaxy cluster SPT-CL J0205–5829 currently has the highest spectroscopically confirmed redshift, z = 1.322, in the South Pole Telescope Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SPT-SZ) survey. XMM-Newton observations measure a core-excluded temperature of T[subscript X] = 8.7[+1.0 over –0.8] keV producing a mass estimate that is consistent with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich-derived mass. The combined SZ and X-ray mass estimate of M [subscript 500] = (4.8 ± 0.8) × 10[superscript 14] h[–1 over 70] M [subscript ☉] makes it the most massive known SZ-selected galaxy cluster at z > 1.2 and the second most massive at z > 1. Using optical and infrared observations, we find that the brightest galaxies in SPT-CL J0205–5829 are already well evolved by the time the universe was over ~]3 Gyr, and low rates of star formation (
