Abstract

We are developing a wide-field CCD camera system which is optimized for using weak gravitational lensing to study the distribution of dark matter in clusters of galaxies and eventually the field. The system will be used at the Apache Point Observatory (APO) 3.5 meter telescope in New Mexico.
