Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect in galaxy clusters

Abstract
We review recent results of Sunyaev-Zel’dovich-effect (SZE) observations toward galaxy clusters. Using cm-wave receivers mounted on the OVRO and BIMA mm-wave arrays, we have obtained high signal-to-noise images of the effect for more than 25 clusters. Over 90% of these clusters are scheduled to be observed with AXAF during the first year of its observations. We present current estimates of cosmological parameters H0 and Ωm based on the SZE in galaxy clusters.
