The ellipticity parameterization for an NFW profile: An overlooked angular structure in strong lens modeling

Frédéric Courbin

Galaxy-scale gravitational lenses are often modeled with two-component mass profiles where one component represents the stellar mass and the second is a Navarro Frenk White (NFW) profile representing the dark matter. Outside of the spherical case, the NFW ...

Probing the faint-end luminosity function of Lyman-alpha emitters at 3 < z < 7 behind 17 MUSE lensing clusters

Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Johan Richard

Context. This paper presents a study of the galaxy Lyman-alpha luminosity function (LF) using a large sample of 17 lensing clusters observed by the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) at the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT). The magnification resulting ...

Void Lensing in Cubic Galileon Gravity

Jiaxi Yu, Cheng Zhao, Huanyuan Shan, Qiao Wang, Jun Zhang

Weak-lensing studies via cosmic voids are a promising probe of modified gravity (MG). The excess surface mass density (ESD) is widely used as a lensing statistic in weak-lensing research. In this paper, we use the ray-tracing method to study the ESD around ...

Uncovering a population of gravitational lens galaxies with magnified standard candle SN Zwicky

Rémy Elie Joseph, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Johan Richard, Johannes Richard Cornelis Geerit Kruis

Detecting gravitationally lensed supernovae is among the biggest challenges in astronomy. It involves a combination of two very rare phenomena: catching the transient signal of a stellar explosion in a distant galaxy and observing it through a nearly perfe ...

Strong gravitational lensing by AGNs as a probe of the quasar-host relations in the distant Universe

Frédéric Courbin, Malte Tewes, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan

A rare case of a quasar acting as a gravitational lens allows a precise determination of the mass of the quasar's host galaxy and offers a new path to studying the connections between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies. ...

TDCOSMO I. An exploration of systematic uncertainties in the inference ofH(0)from time-delay cosmography

Frédéric Courbin

Strong-lensing time delays enable the measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) independently of other traditional methods. The main limitation to the precision of time-delay cosmography is mass-sheet degeneracy (MSD). Some of the previous TDCOSMO analyses b ...

Constraints on the Hubble constant from supernova Refsdal's reappearance

Vivien François Bonvin, Mathilde Jauzac, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Anja Von der Linden

The gravitationally lensed supernova Refsdal appeared in multiple images produced through gravitational lensing by a massive foreground galaxy cluster. After the supernova appeared in 2014, lens models of the galaxy cluster predicted that an additional ima ...

An Unbiased Method of Measuring the Ratio of Two Data Sets

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

In certain cases of astronomical data analysis, the meaningful physical quantity to extract is the ratio R between two data sets. Examples include the lensing ratio, the interloper rate in spectroscopic redshift samples, and the decay rate of gravitational ...

Beyond the ultradeep frontier fields and legacy observations (BUFFALO): a high-resolution strong plus weak-lensing view of Abell 370

David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac

The HST treasury programme BUFFALO provides extended wide-field imaging of the six Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy clusters. Here we present the combined strong and weak-lensing analysis of Abell 370, a massive cluster at z = 0.375. From the reconstructed to ...

LensWatch. I. Resolved HST Observations and Constraints on the Strongly Lensed Type Ia Supernova 2022qmx ("SN Zwicky")

Frédéric Courbin, Adriano Agnello

Supernovae (SNe) that have been multiply imaged by gravitational lensing are rare and powerful probes for cosmology. Each detection is an opportunity to develop the critical tools and methodologies needed as the sample of lensed SNe increases by orders of ...

Euclid: Calibrating photometric redshifts with spectroscopic cross-correlations

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

Cosmological constraints from key probes of the Euclid imaging survey rely critically on the accurate determination of the true redshift distributions, n(z); of tomographic redshift bins. We determine whether the mean redshift, < z >, of ten Euclid tomogra ...

The impact of human expert visual inspection on the discovery of strong gravitational lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Hung-Hsu Chan, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Rémy Elie Joseph, Elodie Marie Charlène Savary, Yue Pan

We investigate the ability of human 'expert' classifiers to identify strong gravitational lens candidates in Dark Energy Survey like imaging. We recruited a total of 55 people that completed more than 25 per cent of the project. During the classification t ...
