Gravitationally Lensed Galaxy Number Counts in the Infrared II: Concrete Examples
Abstract
following the concept presented by Takeuchi, Yoshikawa, & Yonehara (2000), we show some concrete examples of number count of lensed galaxies in the infrared. Adopting a simple lens model of cluster of galaxies, we are able to estimate the expected number counts of galaxies. The result tells us that the expected number counts of galaxies around a single cluster are not so large, but in principle, we can discriminate global history of galaxy evolution efficiently at longer waveband, i.e. FIR and/or sub-mm.
