Strong lensing systems and galaxy cluster observations as probe to the cosmic distance duality relation

Understand

{In this paper, we use large scale structure observations to test the redshift dependence of cosmic distance duality relation (CDDR), $D_{\rm L}(1+z)^{-2}/D_{\rm A}=\eta(z)$}, with $D_{\rm L}$ and $D_{\rm A}$, being the luminosity and angular diameter distances, respectively.

• In order to perform the test, the following data set are considered: strong lensing systems and galaxy cluster measurements (gas mass fractions).
• No specific cosmological model is adopted, only a flat universe is assumed.
• { By considering two $\eta(z)$ parametrizations, It is observed that the CDDR remain redshift independent within $1.5\sigma$ which is in full agreement with other recent tests involving cosmological data}.
