ABSTRACT We present a statistical weak-lensing magnification analysis on an optically selected sample of 3029 CAMIRA (Cluster finding Algorithm based on Multiband Identification of Red-sequence gAlaxies) galaxy clusters with richness N > 15 at redshift 0.2 ≤ z < 1.1 in the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam survey. We use two distinct populations of colour-selected, flux-limited background galaxies, namely the low-z and high-z samples at mean redshifts of ≈1.1 and ≈1.4, respectively, from which to measure the weak-lensing magnification signal by accounting for cluster contamination as well as masking effects. Our magnification bias measurements are found to be uncontaminated according to validation tests against the ‘null-test’ samples for which the net magnification bias is expected to vanish. The magnification bias for the full CAMIRA sample is detected at a significance level of 9.51σ, which is dominated by the high-z background. We forward-model the observed magnification data to constrain the normalization of the richness-to-mass (N–M) relation for the CAMIRA sample with informative priors on other parameters. The resulting scaling relation is N∝ (M500)0.92 ± 0.13(1 + z)−0.48 ± 0.69, with a characteristic richness of N = 17.72 ± 2.60 and intrinsic lognormal scatter of 0.15 ± 0.07 at M500 = 1014 h−1 M⊙. With the derived N–M relation, we provide magnification-calibrated mass estimates of individual CAMIRA clusters, with the typical uncertainty of ≈39 and ≈32  per cent at richness of ≈20 and ≈40, respectively. We further compare our magnification-inferred N–M relation with those from the shear-based results in the literature, finding good agreement.

Galaxy clusters are the endpoints of structure formation and are continuously growing through the merging and accretion of smaller structures. Numerical simulations predict that a fraction of their energy content is not yet thermalized, mainly in the form of kinetic motions (turbulence, bulk motions). Measuring the level of non-thermal pressure support is necessary to understand the processes leading to the virialization of the gas within the potential well of the main halo and to calibrate the biases in hydrostatic mass estimates. We present high-quality measurements of hydrostatic masses and intracluster gas fraction out to the virial radius for a sample of 13 nearby clusters with available XMM-Newton and Planck data. We compare our hydrostatic gas fractions with the expected universal gas fraction to constrain the level of non-thermal pressure support. We find that hydrostatic masses require little correction and infer a median non-thermal pressure fraction of ∼6% and ∼10% at R500 and R200, respectively. Our values are lower than the expectations of hydrodynamical simulations, possibly implying a faster thermalization of the gas. If instead we use the mass calibration adopted by the Planck team, we find that the gas fraction of massive local systems implies a mass bias 1 − b = 0.85 ± 0.05 for Sunyaev–Zeldovich-derived masses, with some evidence for a mass-dependent bias. Conversely, the high bias required to match Planck cosmic microwave background and cluster count cosmology is excluded by the data at high significance, unless the most massive halos are missing a substantial fraction of their baryons.
