我们目前的结果弱透镜集群计数从11平方度SuprimeCam数据。虽然面积比以前处理弱透镜峰值统计的工作小得多，但可用于弱透镜分析的星系的数量密度大约是那些的两倍。较高的星系数密度降低了弱透镜质量图中的噪声，从而增加了由于大质量星系团而导致的透镜信号峰值的信噪比。这使得我们能够通过采用高阈值S/N来构造弱透镜选择聚类样本，使得由于假信号引起的污染率很小。我们发现6个峰的S/N>5。对于所有的峰值，以前确定的星系团是在1弧分的分离匹配，表现出良好的对应关系的峰值和星系团之间。我们使用模拟弱透镜数据评估统计误差，并且发现在9.0平方°的有效区域中Npeak=6+/-3.1。我们比较了测量的弱透镜团簇计数与基于晕模型的理论模型预测，并将约束放置在Omega_m-sigma_8平面上，发现这与当前标准的LCDM模型一致。结果表明，弱透镜团数对σ_8-c_0平面具有唯一的约束，其中c_0是暗物质晕质量浓度关系的归一化。最后，我们讨论了正在进行的/未来的宽视场光学星系调查的前景。
We present results of weak lensing cluster counts obtained from 11 sq.deg SuprimeCam data. Although the area is much smaller than previous work dealing with weak lensing peak statistics, the number density of galaxies usable for weak lensing analysis is about twice as large as those. The higher galaxy number density reduces the noise in the weak lensing mass maps, and thus increases the signal-to-noise ratio of peaks of the lensing signal due to massive clusters. This enables us to construct a weak lensing selected cluster sample by adopting a high threshold S/N, such that the contamination rate due to false signals is small. We find 6 peaks with S/N>5. For all the peaks, previously identified clusters of galaxies are matched within a separation of 1 arcmin, demonstrating good correspondence between the peaks and clusters of galaxies. We evaluate the statistical error using mock weak lensing data, and find Npeak=6+/-3.1 in an effective area of 9.0 sq.deg. We compare the measured weak lensing cluster counts with the theoretical model prediction based on halo models and place the constraint on Omega_m-sigma_8 plane which is found to be consistent with currently standard LCDM models. It is demonstrated that the weak lensing cluster counts can place a unique constraint on sigma_8-c_0 plane, where c_0 is the normalization of the dark matter halo mass-concentration relationship. Finally we discuss prospects for ongoing/future wide field optical galaxy surveys.
