Mesh-free free-form lensing I: Methodology and application to mass reconstruction
Julian Merten
Many applications and algorithms in the field of gravitational lensing make use of meshes with a finite number of nodes to analyze and manipulate data. Specific examples in lensing…
Multiple Images of a Highly Magnified Supernova Formed by an Early-Type Cluster Galaxy Lens
Patrick L. Kelly, Steven A. Rodney, Tommaso Treu +28
In 1964, Refsdal hypothesized that a supernova whose light traversed multiple paths around a strong gravitational lens could be used to measure the rate of cosmic expansion. We rep…
Hubble Space Telescope Combined Strong and Weak Lensing Analysis of the CLASH Sample: Mass and Magnification Models and Systematic Uncertainties
Adi Zitrin, Agnese Fabris, Julian Merten +23
We present results from a comprehensive lensing analysis in HST data, of the complete CLASH cluster sample. We identify new multiple-images previously undiscovered allowing improve…
CLASH-X: A Comparison of Lensing and X-ray Techniques for Measuring the Mass Profiles of Galaxy Clusters
Megan Donahue, G. Mark Voit, Andisheh Mahdavi +35
We present profiles of temperature (Tx), gas mass, and hydrostatic mass estimated from new and archival X-ray observations of CLASH clusters. We compare measurements derived from X…
The MUSIC of CLASH: predictions on the concentration-mass relation
M. Meneghetti, E. Rasia, J. Vega +42
We present the results of a numerical study based on the analysis of the MUSIC-2 simulations, aimed at estimating the expected concentration-mass relation for the CLASH cluster sam…
CLASH: The Concentration-Mass Relation of Galaxy Clusters
J. Merten, M. Meneghetti, M. Postman +38
We present a new determination of the concentration-mass relation for galaxy clusters based on our comprehensive lensing analysis of 19 X-ray selected galaxy clusters from the Clus…
