This study utilizes the LoCuSS dataset to analyze weak and strong lensing effects in massive galaxy clusters. We focus on the low scatter parameter Yx and investigate the morphology, mean, and scatter of weak lensing mass estimates. Our findings highlight the characteristics of strong lensing in cluster cores and the behavior of weak lensing on larger scales, with a specific emphasis on the Einstein radius, which measures the extent of gravitational lensing.
