Abstract

Abstract: We discuss recent advances and prospects in our understanding of the formation of structures on cosmic scales based on surveys of galaxy clusters in the X-ray bands. We highlight the interaction between observations and numerical simulations of the X-ray sky. We show how future surveys will unveil the nature of the dark energy and study its evolution with time.
