Description

The China Space Station Telescope (CSST) is China's next-generation space observatory currently under development. Featuring a 2-meter primary mirror, CSST is expected to detect hundreds of strong gravitational lensing galaxy clusters during its wide-field survey, providing a powerful probe for dark matter research. In preparation for CSST's cluster strong-lensing science goals, we have constructed a mock sample of galaxy cluster gravitational lenses for CSST and developed a pixel-level modeling pipeline capable of reconstructing background sources, including giant arcs. This report will present the construction of the mock sample, the technical framework of the pipeline, and their application prospects for dark matter studies.
