Arc sensitivity to cluster ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures
We investigate how ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures separately affect the ability of galaxy clusters to produce strong lensing events, i.e. gravitational arcs, and how they influence the arc morphologies and fluxes. This is important for those studies aiming, for example, at constraining c...

| 520 | |a We investigate how ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures separately affect the ability of galaxy clusters to produce strong lensing events, i.e. gravitational arcs, and how they influence the arc morphologies and fluxes. This is important for those studies aiming, for example, at constraining cosmological parameters from statistical lensing, or at determining the inner structure of galaxy clusters through gravitational arcs. We do so by creating two-dimensional gradually smoothed, differently elliptical and asymmetric versions of some numerical models. On average, we find that the contributions of ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures amount to ~40%, ~10% and ~30% of the total strong lensing cross section, respectively. However, our analysis shows that substructures play a more important role in less elliptical and asymmetric clusters, even if located at large distances from the cluster centers (~1Mpc/h). Conversely, their effect is less important in highly asymmetric lenses. The morphology, position and flux of individual arcs are strongly affected by the presence of substructures in the clusters. Removing substructures on spatial scales <~50kpc/h, roughly corresponding to mass scales <~5 10^{10}M_\odot/h, alters the image multiplicity of ~35% of the sources used in the simulations and causes position shifts larger than 5'' for ~40% of the arcs longer than 5''. We conclude that any model for cluster lens cannot neglect the effects of ellipticity, asymmetries and substructures. On the other hand, the high sensitivity of gravitational arcs to deviations from regular, smooth and symmetric mass distributions suggests that strong gravitational lensing is potentially a powerfull tool to measure the level of substructures and asymmetries in clusters. | ||
