## TL;DR

This study compares the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect measurements from Planck and XMM-Newton for 70 galaxy clusters, revealing differences between cool-core and non-cool-core clusters and assessing the impact on scaling relations.

## Contribution

It provides the first detailed comparison of $Y_{SZ}$ measurements from Planck and XMM-Newton, highlighting the influence of cool-core status on the scaling relation and measurement discrepancies.

## Key findings

- The $Y_{SZ,Planck}-Y_{SZ,XMM}$ relation has a slope of 0.83 and an intercept of -0.86.
- Cool-core clusters show a lower $Y_{SZ,Planck}/Y_{SZ,XMM}$ ratio (~0.89) compared to non-cool-core clusters (~1.14).
- Intrinsic scatter is smaller for cool-core clusters (0.04) than for non-cool-core clusters (0.27).

## Abstract

We construct a sample of 70 clusters using data from XMM-Newton and Planck to investigate the $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}-Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ scaling relation and the cool-core influences on the relation. $Y_{\rm SZ,XMM}$ is calculated by accurate de-projected temperature and electron number density profiles derived from XMM-Newton. $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}$ is the latest Planck data restricted to our precise X-ray size $\theta_{\rm 500}$. To study the cool-core influences on$Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}-Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ scaling relation, we apply two criteria, limits of central cooling time and classic mass deposition rate, to distinguish cool-core clusters (CCCs) from non-cool-core clusters (NCCCs). We also use $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}$ from other papers, which are derived from different methods, to confirm our results.   The intercept and slope of the$Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}-Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ scaling relation are $A=-0.86 \pm 0.30$, $B=0.83 \pm 0.06$. The intrinsic scatter is $\sigma_{\rm ins}= 0.14 \pm 0.03$. The ratio of \mbox{$Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}/Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$} is $1.03 \pm 0.05$, which is perfectly agreed with unity. Discrepancies of $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}-Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ scaling relation between CCCs and NCCCs are found in observation. They are independent of cool-core classification criteria and $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}$ calculation methods, although discrepancies are more significant under the classification criteria of classic mass deposition rate. The intrinsic scatter of CCCs (0.04) is quite small compared to that of NCCCs (0.27). The ratio of $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}/Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ for CCCs is $0.89 \pm 0.05$, suggesting that CCCs' $Y_{\rm SZ,XMM}$ may overestimate SZ signal. By contrast, the ratio of $Y_{\rm SZ,Planck}/Y_{\rm SZ, XMM}$ for NCCCs is $1.14 \pm 0.12$, which indicates that NCCCs' $Y_{\rm SZ,XMM}$ may underestimate SZ signal.
