Two of the four systems show Einstein rings while the others show tangen- tial giant arcs. These arcs or rings have large angular separations (〉 8″) from the bright central galaxies and show bluer color compared with the red cluster galaxies. In addition, we found 5 probable and 4 possible lenses by galaxy clusters.展开更多
