The Edge of the Solar System
R. Lynne Allen, Gary Bernstein, Renu Malhotra
The population of the Kuiper Belt within 50 AU of the Sun has likely been severely depleted by gravitational perturbations from the giant planets, particularly Neptune. The density…
Weak Lensing Determination of the Mass in Galaxy Halos
D. R. Smith, G. M. Bernstein, P. Fischer +1
We detect the weak gravitational lensing distortion of 450,000 background galaxies (20<R<23) by 790 foreground galaxies (R<18) selected from the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS)…
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…
Detection of weak gravitational lensing distortions of distant galaxies by cosmic dark matter at large scales
David M. Wittman, J. Anthony Tyson, David Kirkman +2
Most of the matter in the universe is not luminous and can be observed directly only through its gravitational effect. An emerging technique called weak gravitational lensing uses…
