Abstract
The Sunyaev–Zel’dovich effect provides a useful probe of cosmology and structure formation in the Universe. Recent years have seen rapid progress in both the quality and quantity of its measurements. In this review, we give an overview of the cosmological and astrophysical implications of recent and near-future observations of the effect. These include measuring the evolution of the cosmic microwave background radiation temperature, the distance–redshift relation out to high redshifts, number counts and power spectra of galaxy clusters, distributions and dynamics of intracluster plasma, and large-scale motions of the Universe.
