Abstract
A detailed discussion is given of the possibility of determining peculiar velocities of clusters of galaxies by measuring the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect. From available optical and X-ray data we select a sample of clusters for which the effect might be measurable at the optimal frequency where the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect vanishes.
