Description
In this research project, the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)
galaxy cluster bulk velocity will be measured using kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich(kSZ) signals from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope Polarimeter
(ACTPol)Data Release 4. The kSZ signal will be detected using 1-point statistics, then developing and applying aperture photometry on the BOSS North and Deep 56 regions of ACTPol DR4. With the extracted kSZ signal, the bulk velocity of the galaxy cluster will be estimated using galaxy cluster positions from the DESI Legacy Imaging Survey Data Release 8.
