SLICE: SPT-CL J0546-5345 -- A prominent strong-lensing cluster at

Joseph F. V. Allingham, Adi Zitrin, Miriam Golubchik +15

Massive galaxy clusters act as prominent strong-lenses. Due to a combination of observational biases, cluster evolution and lensing efficiency, most of the known cluster lenses lie…
