Multicomponent matched filter test
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We describe a multicomponent matched filter (MCMF) cluster confirmation tool designed for the study of large X-ray source catalogues produced by the upcoming X-ray all-sky survey mission eROSITA.
Description
We apply the method to confirm a sample of 88 clusters with redshifts 0.05<z<0.8 in the recently published 2RXS catalogue from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) over the 208 deg^2^ region overlapped by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Science Verification (DES-SV) data set.
In our pilot study, we examine all X-ray sources, regardless of their extent. Our method employs a multicolour red sequence (RS) algorithm that incorporates the X-ray count rate and peak position in determining the region of interest for follow-up and extracts the positionally and colour-weighted optical richness {lambda}_MCMF_ as a function of redshift for each source. Peaks in the {lambda}_MCMF_-redshift distribution are identified and used to extract photometric redshifts, richness and uncertainties.

The significances of all optical counterparts are characterized using the distribution of richnesses defined along random lines of sight. These significances are used to extract cluster catalogues and to estimate the contamination by random superpositions of unassociated optical systems. The delivered photometric redshift accuracy is {delta}z/(1+z)=0.010.
We find a well-defined X-ray luminosity-{lambda}_MCMF_ relation with an intrinsic scatter of {delta}ln({lambda}_MCMF_|Lx)=0.21. Matching our catalogue with the DES-SV redMaPPer catalogue yields good agreement in redshift and richness estimates; comparing our catalogue with the South Pole Telescope (SPT) selected clusters shows no inconsistencies. SPT clusters in our data set are consistent with the high-mass extension of the RASS-based {lambda}_MCMF_-mass relation.
