Lensing results from the Red-sequence Cluster Survey
  We present a variety of weak lensing results based on the ongoing analysis of R_C-band imaging data from the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS). We briefly discuss the weak lensing signal induced by intervening large scale structure (cosmic shear), and study the properties of the dark matter halos surrounding galaxies with 19.5<R_C<21 (which have a median redshift of z=0.35) using a parametrized mass model for the galaxy mass distribution. This allows us for the first time to constrain the extent of the halos. We find a robust upper limit for the truncation parameter s<470 h^{-1} kpc (99.7% confidence). We also study the biasing properties of these galaxies as a function of scale. We find that both the bias parameter b and the galaxy-mass cross-correlation coefficient r vary with scale (on scales 0.1-6 h^{-1} Mpc). Interestingly, we find that r=0.57^{+0.08}_{-0.07} on scales ~0.5 h^{-1} Mpc.
