The galaxy-dark matter bias in the Garching-Bonn Deep Survey
Patrick Simon, Peter Schneider, Thomas Erben +3
We measured the bias and correlation factor of galaxies with respect to the dark matter using the aperture statistics including the aperture mass from weak gravitational lensing. T…
Weighting the Clusters of Galaxies with Weak Gravitational Lensing: The problem of the mass-sheet degeneracy
M. Bradac, M. Lombardi, P. Schneider
Weak gravitational lensing is considered to be one of the most powerful tools to study the mass and the mass distribution of galaxy clusters. However, weak lensing mass reconstruct…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey -- II. Confirmation of EIS cluster candidates by weak gravitational lensing
Mischa Schirmer, Thomas Erben, Peter Schneider +2
We report the first confirmation of colour-selected galaxy cluster candidates by means of weak gravitational lensing. Significant lensing signals were identified in the course of t…
Gravitational lensing as a probe of structure
Peter Schneider
Gravitational lensing has become one of the most interesting tools to study the mass distribution in the Universe. Since gravitational light deflection is independent of the nature…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey -- I. Anatomy of galaxy clusters in the background of NGC 300
Mischa Schirmer, Thomas Erben, Peter Schneider +4
The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey (GaBoDS) is a virtual 12 square degree cosmic shear and cluster lensing survey, conducted with the [email protected] MPG/ESO telescope at La Silla. It consists…
Using VLBI Data to Investigate the Galaxy Structure in the Gravitationally Lensed System B1422+231
M. Bradac, P. Schneider, M. Steinmetz +3
Gravitationally lensed systems with multiply imaged quasars are an excellent tool for studying the properties of distant galaxies. In particular, they provide the most accurate mas…
