Non-spherical BUFFALOs: a weak lensing view of the Frontier Field clusters and associated systematics

A. Niemiec, A. Acebron, B. Beauchesne +15

Galaxy clusters are tracers of the large scale structures of the Universe, making the time evolution of their mass function dependent on key cosmological parameters, such as the co…

A shot in the dark: searching for dark substructures in the RX J0437+00 galaxy cluster

David J. Lagattuta, Mathilde Jauzac, Jessica E. Doppel +2

Obtaining a census of dark matter structures at low mass () can provide strong constraints on the nature of dark matter, though identifying such structures remai…

JWST lens model for A370: A very low dark matter fraction for a brightest cluster galaxy and lensing properties for the Dragon arc

Jose M. Diego, Fengwu Sun, Jose M. Palencia +8

We present a new lens model for the galaxy cluster Abell 370 based on previously spectroscopically confirmed lensed galaxies and new lensed systems identified in JWST dat…

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…

A comprehensive separation of dark matter and baryonic mass components in galaxy clusters I: Mass constraints from Abell S1063

Benjamin Beauchesne, Benjamin Clément, Marceau Limousin +11

In this two-part series, we present a multi-probe mass modelling method for massive galaxy clusters, designed to disentangle the contributions of individual mass components (Dark m…

The Kaleidoscope Survey: Strong Gravitational Lensing in Galaxy Clusters with Radial Arcs

Catherine Cerny, Mathilde Jauzac, David Lagattuta +5

We measure the dark matter density profiles of six galaxy clusters: A383, MS 2137-23, MACS J0326.8-0043, MACS J1427.6-2521, MACS J0417.5-1154, and MACS J0949.8+1708. Each cluster c…
