The Kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) Effect refers to the phenomenon where cosmic microwave background (CMB) photons are scattered by high-energy electrons in galaxy clusters, resulting in a small shift in the frequency of the photons. This effect is crucial for understanding the motion of galaxy clusters, as it reveals how they are moving relative to the observer and affects the observed temperature of the CMB due to Doppler shifts.
congrats on reading the definition of Kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect. now let's actually learn it.
