We report on the weak lensing detection of a filament between two galaxy clusters at $z=0.55$, CL0015.9+1609 and RX J0018.3+1618. We conduct weak lensing analysis of deep multi-band Subaru/Suprime-Cam images with $Lensfit$. The weak lensing…

We present the first results of a pilot X-ray study of 37 rich galaxy clusters at $0.1<z<1.1$ in the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP) field. Diffuse X-ray emissions from these clusters were serendipitously detected in…

We analyze the clustering of galaxies in the first public data release of the HSC Subaru Strategic Program. Despite the relatively small footprints of the observed fields, the data are an excellent proxy for the deep photometric datasets…

We perform a weak lensing and photometric study of the z=0.42 supercluster MS0302+17 using deep I and V band images taken with the UH8K CCD mosaic camera at the CFHT. We use archival ROSAT HRI data to estimate fluxes, gas masses and, in one…

We report the weak lensing discovery, spectroscopic confirmation, and weak lensing tomography of a massive cluster of galaxies at $z=0.68$, demonstrating that shear selection of clusters works at redshifts high enough to be cosmologically…

We present weak lensing mass estimates for a sample of 458 galaxy clusters from the redMaPPer Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR8 catalogue using Hyper Suprime-Cam weak lensing data. We develop a method to quickly estimate cluster masses from weak…

Scaling relations trace the formation and evolution of galaxy clusters. We exploited multi-wavelength surveys -- the XXL survey at \emph{XMM-Newton} in the X-ray band, and the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program for optical weak…

We present results from a weak lensing analysis of the galaxy cluster A1689 (z=0.183) based on deep wide-field imaging data taken with Suprime-Cam on Subaru telescope. A maximum entropy method has been used to reconstruct directly the…

We present wide-field (167 deg$^2$) weak lensing mass maps from the Hyper Supreme-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP). We compare these weak lensing based dark matter maps with maps of the distribution of the stellar mass associated with…

Cluster weak lensing is a sensitive probe of cosmology, particularly the amplitude of matter clustering $\sigma_8$ and matter density parameter $\Omega_m$. The main nuisance parameter in a cluster weak lensing cosmological analysis is the…
