These fields probe small comoving volumes (∼103 Mpc3) at high magnification (μ ≳ 10) and can detect otherwise inaccessible ultra-faint galaxies. Even a few galaxies found in such small volumes require a very high number density of collapsed dark matter (DM) haloes. This implies significant primordial power on small scales, allowing these observations to rule out popular alternatives to standard cold dark matter (CDM) models, such as warm dark matter (WDM). In this work, we analytically compute WDM halo mass functions at z = 10, including the effects of both particle free-streaming and residual velocity dispersion. We show that the two z ≈ 10 galaxies already detected by the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) survey are sufficient to constrain the WDM particle mass to mx > 1 (0.9) keV at 68 per cent (95 per cent) confidence limit (for a thermal relic relativistic at decoupling). This limit depends only on the WDM halo mass function and, unlike previous constraints on mx, is independent of any astrophysical modelling. The forthcoming HST Frontier Fields can significantly tighten these constraints."}],"title":"Focusing on warm dark matter with lensed high-redshift galaxies","extern":"1","_id":"17631","volume":435,"oa":1,"doi":"10.1093/mnrasl/slt093","publication":"Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters","year":"2013","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1745-3933","1745-3925"]},"scopus_import":"1","month":"08","quality_controlled":"1","date_updated":"2024-09-24T09:59:26Z","citation":{"ieee":"F.
