Tracing Structure: Shape and Centroid Deviations in 39 Strong Lensing Clusters as a Test of Cluster Formation Predictions
Raven Gassis, Matthew B. Bayliss, Keren Sharon +10
Strong lensing galaxy clusters provide a unique and powerful way to test simulation-derived structure predictions that follow from Cold Dark Matter (CDM) cosmology. Specif…

The Chandra Strong Lens Sample: Measuring the Dynamical States and Relaxation Fraction of a Sample of 28 Strong Lensing Selected Galaxy Clusters
Raven Gassis, Matthew B. Bayliss, Michael McDonald +10
We present the results of our dynamical state proxy measurements performed on 28 strong lensing galaxy clusters from the Sloan Giant Arcs Survey (SGAS). Using Chandra ACIS-I/S X-ra…

Connecting Lyman- and ionizing photon escape in the Sunburst Arc
M. Riley Owens, Keunho J. Kim, Matthew B. Bayliss +17
We investigate the Lyman- (Ly) and Lyman continuum (LyC) properties of the Sunburst Arc, a gravitationally lensed galaxy with a multiply-imaged, compact region lea…
