RELICS: A Very Large () Cluster Lens -- RXC J0032.1+1808

Ana Acebron, Adi Zitrin, Dan Coe +38

Extensive surveys with the \textit{Hubble Space Telescope} (HST) over the past decade, targeting some of the most massive clusters in the sky, have uncovered dozens of galaxy-clust…

RELICS: High-Resolution Constraints on the Inner Mass Distribution of the z=0.83 Merging Cluster RXJ0152.7-1357 from strong lensing

Ana Acebron, May Alon, Adi Zitrin +37

Strong gravitational lensing (SL) is a powerful means to map the distribution of dark matter. In this work, we perform a SL analysis of the prominent X-ray cluster RXJ0152.7-1357 (…

RELICS: Strong-lensing analysis of the massive clusters MACS J0308.9+2645 and PLCK G171.9-40.7

Ana Acebron, Nathália Cibirka, Adi Zitrin +37

Strong gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters has become a powerful tool for probing the high-redshift Universe, magnifying distant and faint background galaxies. Reliable strong…

The Contribution of Halos with Different Mass Ratios to the Overall Growth of Cluster-Sized Halos

Doron Lemze, Marc Postman, Shy Genel +39

We provide a new observational test for a key prediction of the ΛCDM cosmological model: the contributions of mergers with different halo-to-main-cluster mass ratios to cluster-siz…

CLASH: Complete Lensing Analysis of the Largest Cosmic Lens MACS J0717.5+3745 and Surrounding Structures

Elinor Medezinski, Keiichi Umetsu, Mario Nonino +35

The galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 (z=0.55) is the largest known cosmic lens, with complex internal structures seen in deep X-ray, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect and dynamical observa…

A Census of Star-Forming Galaxies in the z~9-10 Universe based on HST+Spitzer Observations Over 19 CLASH clusters: Three Candidate z~9-10 Galaxies and Improved Constraints on the Star Formation Rate Density at z~9

R. Bouwens, L. Bradley, A. Zitrin +34

We utilise a two-color Lyman-Break selection criterion to search for z~9-10 galaxies over the first 19 clusters in the CLASH program. A systematic search yields three z~9-10 candid…

A highly magnified candidate for a young galaxy seen when the Universe was 500 Myrs old

Wei Zheng, Marc Postman, Adi Zitrin +33

The early Universe at redshift z\sim6-11 marks the reionization of the intergalactic medium, following the formation of the first generation of stars. However, those young galaxies…

CLASH: Mass Distribution in and around MACS J1206.2-0847 from a Full Cluster Lensing Analysis

Keiichi Umetsu, Elinor Medezinski, Mario Nonino +45

We derive an accurate mass distribution of the galaxy cluster MACS J1206.2-0847 (z=0.439) from a combined weak-lensing distortion, magnification, and strong-lensing analysis of wid…

CLASH: Precise New Constraints on the Mass Profile of Abell 2261

Dan Coe, Keiichi Umetsu, Adi Zitrin +43

We precisely constrain the inner mass profile of Abell 2261 (z=0.225) for the first time and determine this cluster is not "over-concentrated" as found previously, implying a forma…
