Forecasting the constraints on optical selection bias and projection effects of galaxy cluster lensing with multiwavelength data

Conghao Zhou, Hao-Yi Wu, Andrés N. Salcedo +12

Galaxy clusters identified with optical imaging tend to suffer from projection effects, which impact richness (the number of member galaxies in a cluster) and lensing coherently. P…
