Offset between dark matter and ordinary matter: evidence from a sample of 38 lensing clusters of galaxies
HuanYuan Shan, Bo Qin, Bernard Fort +3
We compile a sample of 38 galaxy clusters which have both X-ray and strong lensing observations, and study for each cluster the projected offset between the dominant component of b…
A search for edge-on galaxy lenses in the CFHT Legacy Survey
Jean-Francois Sygnet, Hong Tu, Bernard Fort +1
[ABRIDGED] The new generation of wide field optical imaging like the Canada France Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS) enables discoveries of all types of gravitational lenses…
Photometric redshifts and cluster tomography in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey
R. Pello, G. Rudnick, G. De Lucia +17
This paper reports the results obtained on the photometric redshifts measurement and accuracy, and cluster tomography in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) fields. Photometric…
Combining Strong and Weak Gravitational Lensing in Abell 1689
M. Limousin, J. Richard, E. Jullo +14
We present a reconstruction of the mass distribution of galaxy cluster Abell 1689 at z = 0.18 using detected strong lensing features from deep HST/ACS observations and extensive gr…
The CFHTLS Strong Lensing Legacy Survey: I. Survey overview and T0002 release sample
R. A. Cabanac, C. Alard, M. Dantel-Fort +10
AIMS: We present data from the CFHTLS Strong Lensing Legacy Survey (SL2S). Due to the unsurpassed combined depth, area and image quality of the Canada-France-Hawaii Legacy Survey i…
Caustics in Dark Matter Haloes
Roya Mohayaee, Stephane Colombi, Bernard Fort +3
Caustics are formally singular structures, with infinite density, that form in collisionless media. The non-negligible velocity dispersion of dark matter particles renders their de…
