Conclusions PSCz galaxy density < 150 Mpc/h Reconstructed mass maps provide, for the first time, a direct view of the large-scale, filamentary distribution of dark matter. Optimally-tuned lensing analysis around identified structures links into astrophysics (MD relation, x-ray MT, cluster formation…) COSMOS mass density
