A method to search for strong galaxy-galaxy lenses in optical imaging surveys
Jeffrey M. Kubo, Ian P. Dell'Antonio
We present a semi-automated method to search for strong galaxy-galaxy lenses in optical imaging surveys. Our search technique constrains the shape of strongly lensed galaxies (or a…
--PhotoZ: Photometric Redshifts by Inverting the Tolman Surface Brightness Test
Michael J. Kurtz, Margaret J. Geller, Daniel G. Fabricant +2
Surface brightness is a fundamental observational parameter of galaxies. We show, for the first time in detail, how it can be used to obtain photometric redshifts for galaxies, the…
Shear-selected clusters from the Deep Lens Survey
V. E. Margoniner, the Deep Lens Survey Team
Weak gravitational lensing has the potential to select clusters independently of their baryon content, dynamical state, and star formation history. We present steps toward the firs…
The Normal Cluster Weak Lensing Survey: Mass Profiles and M/L Ratios of Eight Clusters at z=0.2
David Wittman, Ian Dell'Antonio, Tony Tyson +3
We present a survey of mass profiles and mass-to-light ratios of eight typical galaxy clusters at a common redshift (z ~ 0.2). We use weak gravitational lensing as a probe because…
