Scientific paper

Gravitational lensing studies of clusters of galaxies provide the most compelling evidence for the existence of dark matter in the Universe. Here, we briefly outline recent work that provides constraints on the granularity of the dark matter distribution within clusters. The inferred re-distribution of dark matter on small-scales in clusters has implications for dark matter candidates. The future prospects of combining lensing studies of clusters with other complementary probes-X-ray data, spectroscopic data, and Sunyaev-Zeldovich temperature decrements in order to better understand the formation and evolution of clusters is outlined.
