A comparison of weak-lensing masses and X-ray properties of galaxy clusters

We present measurements of the masses of 20 X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies at intermediate redshifts, determined from a weak-lensing analysis of deep archival R-band data obtained using the Canadaā€“Franceā€“Hawaii Telescope. Compared to previous work, our analysis accounts for a number of effects that are typically ignored, but can lead ā€¦
