The Cosmic Telescope That Lenses the Sunburst Arc, PSZ1 G311.65–18.48: Strong Gravitational Lensing Model and Source Plane Analysis

We present a strong-lensing analysis of the cluster PSZ1 G311.65−18.48, based on Hubble Space Telescope imaging, archival VLT/MUSE spectroscopy, and Chandra X-ray data. This cool-core cluster ( z = 0.443) lenses the brightest lensed galaxy known, dubbed the “Sunburst Arc” ( z = 2.3703), a Lyman cont...

Zusammenfassung:We present a strong-lensing analysis of the cluster PSZ1 G311.65−18.48, based on Hubble Space Telescope imaging, archival VLT/MUSE spectroscopy, and Chandra X-ray data. This cool-core cluster ( z = 0.443) lenses the brightest lensed galaxy known, dubbed the “Sunburst Arc” ( z = 2.3703), a Lyman continuum (LyC) emitting galaxy multiply imaged 12 times. We identify in this field 14 additional strongly lensed galaxies to constrain a strong-lens model and report secure spectroscopic redshifts of four of them. We measure a projected cluster core mass of M (
