Cold versus Warm Dark Matter Simulations of a Galaxy Group
... immediately apparent from this figure: (1) there are far fewer small substructures and (2) the two groups differ substantially, cosmographically speaking. In Figures 3(a and c), we show the co-moving and physical distance between the three pairs of group members as a function of look-back time, norm ...

Weak gravitational lensing
While the presence of any mass bends the path of light passing near it, this effect rarely produces the giant arcs and multiple images associated with strong gravitational lensing. Most lines of sight in the universe are thoroughly in the weak lensing regime, in which the deflection is impossible to detect in a single background source. However, even in these cases, the presence of the foreground mass can be detected, by way of a systematic alignment of background sources around the lensing mass. Weak gravitational lensing is thus an intrinsically statistical measurement, but it provides a way to measure the masses of astronomical objects without requiring assumptions about their composition or dynamical state.
