  • Cerny et al. (2025)

    On request HSTMUSE

    Paper: Cerny et al. (2025)Software: LenstoolTags: parametric

    Strong-lensing model built around the cluster's radial arc(s), combined with the stellar velocity dispersion profile of the BCG to measure the inner slope of the dark-matter profile.

  • Allingham et al. (2024)

    On request HSTMUSE

    Paper: Allingham et al. (2024)Software: LenstoolTags: method test

    Lens models re-optimised together with an analytic model of the intra-cluster medium, compared with XMM-Newton and ACT data.

  • Allingham et al. (2023)

    On request HSTMUSE

    Paper: Allingham et al. (2023)Software: Lenstool

    Lenstool model with two MUSE-confirmed and four HST-only multiple-image systems, combined with XMM-Newton data; it shows a relaxing post-merger cluster.
