Observations are from the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH). Simulated CLASH images are created using the MOKA package and also clusters selected from the high-resolution, hydrodynamical simulations, MUSIC, over the same mass and redshift range as the CLASH sample. The algorithm's arc elongation accuracy, completeness, and false positive rate are determined and used to compute an estimate of the true arc abundance. We derive a lensing efficiency of 4+/-1 arcs (with length &gt;=6" and length-to-width ratio &gt;=7) per cluster for the X-ray-selected CLASH sample, 4+/-1 arcs per cluster for the MOKA-simulated sample, and 3+/-1 arcs per cluster for the MUSIC-simulated sample. The observed and simulated arc statistics are in full agreement. We measure the photometric redshifts of all detected arcs and find a median redshift z_s_=1.9 with 33% of the detected arcs having z_s_&gt;3. We find that the arc abundance does not depend strongly on the source redshift distribution but is sensitive to the mass distribution of the dark matter halos (e.g., the c-M relation). Our results show that consistency between the observed and simulated distributions of lensed arc sizes and axial ratios can be achieved by using cluster-lensing simulations that are carefully matched to the selection criteria used in the observations.</description><source format="bibcode">2016ApJ...817...85X</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/817/85</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/MNRAS/406/1318">J/MNRAS/406/1318 : Lensed-arc statistics of galaxy clusters (Horesh+, 2010)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/562/A86">J/A+A/562/A86 : CLASH.
