The hot gas in clusters of galaxies creates a distinctive spectral distortion in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) via the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) effect. The spectral signature of the SZ can be used to measure the CMB temperature at cluster redshift (TCMB(z)) and to constrain the monopole of the y-type spectral distortion of the CMB spectrum. In this work, we start showing the measurements of TCMB(z) for a sample extracted from the Second Catalog of galaxy clusters produced by Planck (PSZ2) and containing 75 clusters selected from CHEX-MATE. Then we show the forecasts for future CMB experiments about the constraints on the monopole of the y-type spectral distortion of the CMB spectrum via the spectrum of the SZ effect.
