Program: MUSE DR
The MUSE release page lists this cluster (as MACS0600) with a redshift catalogue and a mass-model link, but the model directory was empty in October 2026.

Notes
The position is the core studied by RELICS and the ALMA Lensing Cluster Survey, at the galaxy Furtak et al. (2024) call the South BCG. Their model adds a second strong-lensing structure about 2.5-3' to the north-east, around the galaxies they label BCG1 and BCG2 (the position used until October 2026), and they nickname the system the Anglerfish cluster. note: MAST provides models made with glafic and Lenstool.
