Weak lensing work can be badly compromised by unlensed foreground and cluster members which dilute the true lensing signal. We show how the lensing amplitude in multi-colour space can be harnessed to securely separate cluster members from the foreground and background populations for three massive clusters, A1703 (z=0.258), A370 (z=0.375) and RXJ1347-11 (z=0.451) imaged with Subaru. The luminosity functions of these clusters when corrected for dilution, show similar faint-end slopes, α~= -1.0, with no marked faint-end upturn to our limit of M_R ~= -15.0, and only a mild radial gradient. In each case, the radial profile of the M/L ratio peaks at intermediate radius, ~=0.2r_{vir}, at a level of 300-500(M/L_R)_\odot, and then falls steadily towards ~100(M/L_R)_{\odot} at the virial radius, similar to the mean field level. This behaviour is likely due to the relative paucity of central late-type galaxies, whereas for the E/S0-sequence only a mild radial decline in M/L is found for each cluster. We discuss this behaviour in the context of detailed simulations where predictions for tidal stripping may now be tested accurately with observations.

The Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC): Deep Medium-Band optical imaging and high quality 32-band photometric redshifts in the ECDF-S
作为耶鲁-智利多波长巡天(MUSYC)的一部分,我们介绍了斯巴鲁望远镜在~30' x 30'扩展钱德拉深场南(ECDF-S)上的深光学18-中波测光。该领域拥有丰富的地面和空间辅助数据,并包含GOODS-South领域和哈勃超深领域。我们将斯巴鲁图像与现有的UBVRIzJHK和斯皮策IRAC图像相结合,以创建一个统一的目录。在MUSYC BVR图像中检测源,我们发现大约40,000个星系的R_AB<25.3,18个中等波段的中值5 sigma极限。测光红移使用EAZY代码确定,并与该领域的~2000光谱红移进行比较。中带滤波器提供了非常精确的红移的星系(明亮)子集的光谱红移,特别是在0.1 < z < 1.2 and at z >3.5。对于0.1 < z < 1.2,我们发现Δz/(1+z)为0.007的1 sigma散点,类似于在COSMOS场中使用类似滤波器组获得的结果。作为数据质量的证明,我们表明红色序列和蓝色云可以在静止帧颜色-星等图中在0.1 < z < 1.2处清楚地识别。我们发现,约20%的红序星系在较长的静止帧波长的尘埃排放的证据。缩小后的影像、光度表和光度红移都是通过MUSYC网站提供的。
MC^2: Mapping the Dark Matter Distribution of the "Toothbrush" Cluster RX J0603.3+4214 with Hubble Space Telescope and Subaru Weak-lensing
z=0.225的星系团RX J0603.3+4214是最罕见的星系团之一,拥有非常大的射电遗迹(~2 Mpc)。由于遗迹的显著形态,该集群被昵称为“牙刷集群”。虽然星团的基本质量分布是重建令人费解的射电遗迹形态的合并场景所需的关键信息之一,但它接近银河平面b~10度的位置给观测带来了重大挑战。我们提出了一个高分辨率的弱透镜研究与斯巴鲁/Suprime凸轮和哈勃太空望远镜的成像数据的集群。我们的质量重建显示,该集群是由复杂的暗物质子结构密切跟踪星系的分布,但在相对简单的二元X射线形态形成对比。然而,我们发现星团质量仍然由南北方向排列的两个质量最大的星团占主导地位,其质量比约为3:1(北部和南部星团的M_{200} =6.29_{-1.62}^{+2.24} x 10^{14} Msun和1.98_{-0.74}^{+1.24} x 10^{14} Msun)。南部的质量峰相对于相应的X射线峰向南偏移约2',其具有指向南方的“子弹”状形态。目前的弱透镜结果与X射线,星系和射电遗迹的比较表明,也许负责观测遗迹的主要机制可能是两个最大质量的子星系团的高速碰撞,尽管形态的特殊性需要额外的子星系团的参与。随后应进行仔细的数值模拟,以便利用所有现有的观测资料更全面地了解合并的情况。
