Is the number of giant arcs in LCDM consistent with observations?

We use high-resolution N-body simulations to study the galaxy-cluster cross-sections and the abundance of giant arcs in the $\Lambda$CDM model. Clusters are selected from the simulations using the friends-of-friends method, and their cross-sections for forming giant arcs are analyzed. The background...
