Measurement of the electron-pressure profile of galaxy clusters in Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) 3-year data

F. Atrio-Barandela, A. Kashlinsky, D. Kocevski +1

Using WMAP 3-year data at the locations of close to X-ray selected clusters we have detected the amplitude of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (TSZ) effect at the 15 lev…

Near-infrared evolution of brightest cluster galaxies in the most X-ray luminous clusters since z=1

J. P. Stott, A. C. Edge, G. P. Smith +2

We investigate the near infrared evolution of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) from a sample of rich galaxy clusters since z=1. By employing an X-ray selection of Lx>1e44 erg s-1…

Separation of the visible and dark matter in the Einstein ring LBG J213512.73-010143

Simon Dye, Ian Smail, A. M. Swinbank +2

We model the mass distribution in the recently discovered Einstein ring LBG J213512.73-010143 (the `Cosmic Eye') using archival Hubble Space Telescope imaging. We reconstruct the m…

A Lensing Survey of X-ray Luminous Galaxy Clusters at Redshift z ~ 0.2: II: CFH12k Weak Lensing Analysis and Global Correlations

S. Bardeau, G. Soucail, J. P. Kneib +5

Aims: We present a wide-field multi-color survey of a homogeneous sample of eleven clusters of galaxies for which we measure total masses and mass distributions from weak lensing.…

A Survey for Supernovae in Massive High-Redshift Clusters

Keren Sharon, A. Gal-Yam, D. Maoz +12

We describe our ongoing program designed to measure the SN-Ia rate in a sample of massive z=0.5-0.9 galaxy clusters. The SN-Ia rate is a poorly known observable, especially at high…

Truncation of galaxy dark matter halos in high density environments

M. Limousin, J. P. Kneib, S. Bardeau +5

Our aim is to constrain the properties of dark matter halos inhabiting high density environments, such as is the case in massive galaxy clusters. We use galaxy-galaxy lensing techn…
