Combining multiwavelength data for a single relaxed cluster of galaxies can yield powerful constraints on its dark matter distribution and on the equation of state of the intracluster plasma. Using JACO, a codebase for simultaneous modeling of multi-mission X-ray, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich, and weak gravitational lensing data, dark matter profiles for nearly the full sample of CCCP clusters have been deduced. We use both Chandra and XMM-Newton for X-ray, CFHT for weak lensing, and CBI for the SZ effect. Global gas entropy and pressure profiles combining both Chandra and XMM-Newton reveal the thermodynamic state of the gas over more decades in radius than would be possible with either mission in isolation. I will show results from the joint analysis, and discuss the power of combined X-ray and weak-lensing analysis in recovering the slopes and concentrations of relaxed cluster dark matter halos.
