The core of the massive cluster merger MACS J0417.5-1154 as seen by VLT/MUSE

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Johannes Richard Cornelis Geerit Kruis, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the core of the massive galaxy cluster MACS J0417.5-1154 (z = 0.441). Our analysis takes advantage of Very Large Telescope/Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer observations which allowthe spectroscopic confirmation of ...

Dissecting cold gas in a high-redshift galaxy using a lensed background quasar

Frédéric Courbin

We present a study of cold gas absorption from a damped Lyman-alpha absorber (DLA) at redshift z(abs) = 1.946 toward two lensed images of the quasar J144254.78+405535.5 at redshift z(QSO) = 2.590. The physical separation of the two lines of sight at the ab ...

Sparse Linear Inversion for Strong Gravitational Lenses Reconstruction, Component Separation from Morphological Component Analysis with Multiple Discrimination Criteria

Rémy Elie Joseph

Strong gravitational is a natural phenomenon that produces distorted images of distant galaxies due to massive galaxies or clusters, called deflectors or lenses, lying along the line of sight. Due to the mass of the deflector, and as a result of general re ...

Stepwise Luneburg Lens for Bloch Surface Waves

Myun Sik Kim, Babak Vosoughi Lahijani

In order to enlarge the capability for in-plane manipulation of the Bloch surface wave (BSW), we investigate 2D gradient index (GRIN) optical components using a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) numerical method. To ease difficulties in fabrication to a ...

AAM: An Assessment Metric of Axial Chromatic Aberration

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen

Knowledge of lens specifications is important to identify the best lens for a given capture scenario and application. Lens manufacturers provide many specifications in their data sheets, and multiple initiatives for testing and comparing different lenses c ...

Survey of Gravitationally Lensed Objects in HSC Imaging (SuGOHI). II. Environments and Line-of-Sight Structure of Strong Gravitational Lens Galaxies to z similar to 0.8

Hung-Hsu Chan

We investigate the local and line-of-sight (LOS) overdensities of strong gravitational lens galaxies using wide-area multiband imaging from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program. We present 41. new definite or probable lens candidates discovered i ...

Scaling effect and its impact on wavelength-scale microlenses

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We revisit the scaling laws in micro-optical systems to highlight new phenomena arising beyond a conventional optical regime, especially when the size of the system approaches to the operational wavelength. Our goal is to visualize the impact of the scalin ...

HOLiCOW - IV. Lens mass model of HE 0435-1223 and blind measurement of its time-delay distance for cosmology

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin

Strong gravitational lenses with measured time delays between the multiple images allow a direct measurement of the time-delay distance to the lens, and thus a measure of cosmological parameters, particularly the Hubble constant, H-0. We present a blind le ...

H0LiCOW-I. H-0 Lenses in COSMOGRAIL's Wellspring: program overview

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Vivien François Bonvin, Olga Tihhonova, Adriano Agnello

Strong gravitational lens systems with time delays between the multiple images allow measurements of time-delay distances, which are primarily sensitive to the Hubble constant that is key to probing dark energy, neutrino physics and the spatial curvature o ...

H0LiCOW-II. Spectroscopic survey and galaxy-group identification of the strong gravitational lens system HE 0435-1223

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Vivien François Bonvin

Galaxies located in the environment or along the line of sight towards gravitational lenses can significantly affect lensing observables, and can lead to systematic errors on the measurement of H-0 from the time-delay technique. We present the results of a ...

Precise measurements of time delays in gravitationally lensed quasars for competitive and independent determination of the Hubble constant

Vivien François Bonvin

During these last decades, by virtue of observations, the Standard Cosmological Model has emerged, providing a description of the Universe's evolution using a minimal set of independent constraints - the cosmological parameters. Among them is the expansion ...
