Weak lensing profilesWeak lensing profilesA370• gT profiles –
•rising background signal
•~zero for green – diluted by unlensed cluster members
• Cluster membership – almost ~100% for entire radius range,
→green sample is comprised mostly of cluster.

• Oguri et al. 2009
• Diluted by a factor of ~2 in the center
• Leads to underestimated Einstein radius
• Leads to underestimated Cvir

• gT-profiles agree
• NFW fits give high concentrations (Cvir=rvir/rs)
than expected by ΛCDM N-body simulations
• Use magnification to check consistency of gT results
Broadhurst et al. 2008

Luminosity & M/L profilesLuminosity & M/L profiles
• Cluster luminosity – “g-weighted” flux to get cluster flux
• Flux Luminosity• Linear fit• M/L goes down in the
outskirts – morphology-density related effect (Dressler 1980)

Weak lensing samplesWeak lensing samples• Select background galaxy samples –”red”,
“blue”, “green” and “dropouts” and measure their lensing profile
A370• Red – background• Blue – background• Green – background• Pink – background
(high-z dropouts)

SummarySummary• Developed new scheme to resolve cluster/foreground/background selected in color-color space and better
determine weak lensing profiles.
• Determined light profiles & radial luminosity functions of A1689, A1703, A370, RXJ1347 reliably, with no need to resolve the cluster sequence based on color.
• Found flat luminosity function, with no need for far-field counts for background subtraction.
• Constructed M/L profiles to the virial radius, showing physical behavior of DM to light distributions, dropping to the center of cluster, and also dropping to the outskirts.
• Deduced high NFW concentrations, contradicting ΛCDM simulation expectation values.
• Use weak lensing distortions to constrain the lensing distance – redshift relation.
Future work:
• Obtain photo-z’s using more colors for consistency checks.
• Extend to other clusters (CL0024 submitted Umetsu et al. 2009, MACS sample) using existing Subaru.
• Combine w/ strong-lensing from HST/ACS (Zitrin et al. 2009) – Hubble MCT proposal accepted!! – 25 clusters with 525 orbits.
• Constrain mass distribution by combining X-ray and SZ from Chandra and Amiba (Amiba paper - Umetsu et al. 2009).
