... These Frontier Fields will combine the power of HST with the natural gravitational telescopes of high-magnification clusters of galaxies. ... We are soliciting gravitational lensing maps for the last four Hubble Frontier Fields clusters (MACSJ0717.5+3745, MACSJ1149.5+2223, AbellS1063, and Abell 370) based upon the exceptionally deep HST FF imaging and other new ancillary data. ...

... Science . ... The goal is to bring together two communitities: the one working on star formation (mostly galactic) and the one working on the formation of young massive clusters (mostly extra-galactic). We will link galactic with extra-galactic work, optical/NIR techniques with sub-mm/mm/radio ones, the formation of stars with the one of massive star clusters - observations and theory. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... MRAO Telescopes . AMI . ... This is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) telelescope with a difference, in that it is designed to survey the sky looking for galaxy clusters by means of the ?shadows? they cast against the CMB. This shadowing, the so-called SZ effect, is a remarkable phenomenon because it is independent of redshift, allowing AMI to find clusters which are so far away that their own emission would be too faint to detect ? ...
