Gravitationally lensed quasars in Gaia - IV. 150 new lenses, quasar pairs, and projected quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Adriano Agnello

We report the spectroscopic follow-up of 175 lensed quasar candidates selected using Gaia Data Release 2 observations following Paper III of this series. Systems include 86 confirmed lensed quasars and a further 17 likely lensed quasars based on imaging an ...

Euclid: the selection of quiescent and star-forming galaxies using observed colours

Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

The Euclid mission will observe well over a billion galaxies out to z similar to 6 and beyond. This will offer an unrivalled opportunity to investigate several key questions for understanding galaxy formation and evolution. The first step for many of these ...

Exploiting flux ratio anomalies to probe warm dark matter in future large-scale surveys

Frédéric Courbin, Alexey Boyarsky, David Richard Harvey, Amélie Tamone, Wessel Valkenburg

Flux ratio anomalies in strong gravitationally lensed quasars constitute a unique way to probe the abundance of non-luminous dark matter haloes, and hence the nature of dark matter. In this paper, we identify double-imaged quasars as a statistically effici ...

Potential Recoiling Supermassive Black Hole, CXO J101527.2+625911

David Richard Harvey

We have carried out a systematic search for recoiling supermassive black holes (rSMBH) using the Chandra Source and SDSS Cross-Match Catalog. From the survey, we have detected a potential rSMBH, CXO J101527.2 +625911, at z = 0.3504. The source CXO J101527. ...

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses X. Modeling based on high-precision astrometry of a sample of 25 lensed quasars: consequences for ellipticity, shear, and astrometric anomalies

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

Gravitationally lensed quasars can be used as powerful cosmological and astrophysical probes. We can (i) infer the Hubble constant H-0 based on the so-called time-delay technique, (ii) unveil substructures along the line-of-sight toward distant galaxies, a ...

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Yves Revaz, Malte Tewes

We present accurate time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar HE 0435-1223. The delays were measured from 575 independent photometric points obtained in the R-band between January 2004 and March 2010. With seven years of data, we clearly show that quasar ...
