Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF)

The Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) program is a legacy project to provide the deepest images of the universe through some of the most powerful natural lenses. The six clusters from the HFF allow to study some of the most distant galaxies ever observed and also to map the contents of the mass in the cluster, mostly dominated by dark matter. Our group has contributed to the effort of providing lens models for all sic clusters as well as a well understood sample of distant multiply lensed galaxies.
