Galaxies under the cosmic microscope: A gemini multiobject spectrograph study of lensed disk galaxy 289 in A2218
In this paper, we exploit the gravitational potential of the rich cluster A2218 as a magnifying glass. We demonstrate that the magnification due to the cluster allows us to observe distant background galaxies at a comparable level of detail to galaxies at z ∼ 0.1. Using the Gemini Multiobject Spectr...
