Scientific paper

We present a weak lensing study of the Coma Cluster in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The large area covered by the SDSS allows us to study for the first time the weak lensing signal due this low redshift cluster. The wealth of external information that exists for Coma can be combined with our weak lensing analysis to study this cluster using methods that are not possible for higher redshift clusters. Here we present our method of detecting the lensing signal due to Coma as well as preliminary results.
