Strong lensing optical depths in a LCDM universe II: the influence of the stellar mass in galaxies

Stefan Hilbert, Simon D. M. White, Jan Hartlap +1

We investigate how strong gravitational lensing in the concordance LCDM cosmology is affected by the stellar mass in galaxies. We extend our previous studies, based on ray-tracing…

Strong lensing optical depths in a \LambdaCDM universe

Stefan Hilbert, Simon D. M. White, Jan Hartlap +1

We investigate strong gravitational lensing in the concordance CDM cosmology by carrying out ray-tracing along past light cones through the Millennium Simulation, the largest si…

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…
