Scientific paper

We present new lens reconstruction models based on HST WFPC2 and NICMOS imaging of two strongly lensed Lyman Break Galaxies LBGs that were recently discovered. These two LBGs -- the "8 O'Clock Arc" (Allam et al. 2007) and the "SDSS J1206+5142 Arc" (Lin et al. 2008)-- are currently the brightest known LBGs, roughly 3 times brighter than the former record-holder,MS1512-cB58 (a.k.a. "cB58"). Based on the lens reconstructions and detailed SED modeling, we will discuss the properties of these two newly discovered lensed LBGs.
