Cosmology with extreme galaxy clusters
This thesis describes the use of the rarest high-mass and high-redshift galaxy clusters to constrain cosmology, with a particular focus on the methodology of Extreme Value Statistics (EVS). Motivated by the prospect that even a single sufficiently high mass and high redshift cluster can provide stro...
