4MOST Cosmology Redshift Survey (CRS): Clustering Properties of CRS Bright Galaxy and Luminous Red Galaxy Target Catalogues

Behnood Bandi, Antoine Rocher, Aurélien Verdier +6

The 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope Cosmology Redshift Survey (4MOST CRS) will obtain 5.4 million spectroscopic redshifts over ~5700 deg^2 to map large-scale structure…

A comprehensive separation of dark matter and baryonic mass components in galaxy clusters II: an overview of the mass distribution in Abell S1063

Benjamin Beauchesne, Benjamin Clément, Marceau Limousin +11

In the first paper of this series, we derived mass constraints on the total mass and the baryonic components of the galaxy cluster Abell S1063. The main focus was to recover stella…

Mass & Light in Galaxy Clusters: The case of Abell 370

M. Limousin, A. Niemiec, B. Beauchesne +16

Parametric strong lensing studies of galaxy clusters often display "misleading features". This is the case in the galaxy cluster Abell 370. Using strong lensing techniques, it has…

The Extraordinary Amount of Substructure in the Hubble Frontier Fields Cluster Abell 2744

M. Jauzac, D. Eckert, J. Schwinn +21

We present a joint optical/X-ray analysis of the massive galaxy cluster Abell 2744 (z=0.308). Our strong- and weak-lensing analysis within the central region of the cluster, i.e.,…

Strong-Lensing Analysis of MACS,J0717.5+3745 from Hubble Frontier Fields observations: How well can the mass distribution be constrained?

M. Limousin, J. Richard, E. Jullo +12

[abridged] We present a strong-lensing analysis of MACSJ0717.5+3745, based on the full depth of the Hubble Frontier Field (HFF) observations, which brings the number of multiply im…

Dynamical analysis of strong-lensing galaxy groups at intermediate redshift

R. P. Muñoz, V. Motta, T. Verdugo +8

We present VLT spectroscopic observations of 7 discovered galaxy groups between 0.3<z<0.7. The groups were selected from the Strong Lensing Legacy Survey (SL2S), a survey that cons…

The Bullet cluster at its best: weighing stars, gas and dark matter

D. Paraficz, J. -P. Kneib, J. Richard +4

We present a new strong lensing mass reconstruction of the Bullet cluster (1E 0657-56) at z=0.296, based on WFC3 and ACS HST imaging and VLT/FORS2 spectroscopy. The strong lensing…

Gravitational lensing and dynamics in SL2S\,J02140-0535: Probing the mass out to large radius

T. Verdugo, V. Motta, R. P. Muñoz +3

We aim to probe the mass of SL2S\,J02140-0535, a galaxy group at = 0.44 from the Strong Lensing Legacy Survey (SL2S). We combine strong lensing modeling and dynamical constrain…

Abell 611. II. X-ray and strong lensing analyses

A. Donnarumma, S. Ettori, M. Meneghetti +10

We present the results of our analyses of the X-ray emission and of the strong lensing systems in the relaxed galaxy cluster Abell 611 (z=0.288). We infer the X-ray mass estimate d…
