RELICS: Strong Lens Model of SMACSJ0723.3-7327 (2208.08483v1)

Abstract: We present the details of a strong lens model of SMACS J0723.3-7327, which was made public as part of the data and high level science products (HLSP) release of the RELICS HST treasury program (Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey; GO-14096, PI: Coe). The model products were made available on the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST) via 10.17909/T9SP45 in 2017. Here, we provide the list of constraints that were used in the HST-based RELICS lens model, as well as other information related to our modeling choices, which were not published with the data and HLSP release. This model was computed with Lenstool, used multiple images of 8 sources, with no spectroscopic redshifts. The image plane RMS was 0".58.
