Weighing the giants – IV. Cosmology and neutrino mass

We employ robust weak gravitational lensing measurements to improve cosmological constraints from measurements of the galaxy cluster mass function and its evolution, using X-ray selected clusters detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. Our lensing analysis constrains the absolute mass scale of such clusters at the 8 per cent level, including both statistical and systematic uncertainties. Combining it with the survey data and X-ray follow-up observations, we find a tight constraint on a combination of the mean matter density and late-time normalization of the matter power spec-trum, σ8(Ωm/0.3) 0.17 = 0.81 ± 0.03, with marginalized, one-dimensional constraints of Ωm = 0.26 ± 0.03 and σ8 = 0.83 ± 0.04. For these two parameters, this represents a factor of two improvement in precision with respect to previous work, primarily due
