Two Peculiar Fast Transients in a Strongly Lensed Host Galaxy

S. A. Rodney, I. Balestra, M. Bradac +32

A massive galaxy cluster can serve as a magnifying glass for distant stellar populations, with strong gravitational lensing exposing details in the lensed background galaxies that…

Extreme magnification of a star at redshift 1.5 by a galaxy-cluster lens

Patrick L. Kelly, Jose M. Diego, Steven Rodney +42

Galaxy-cluster gravitational lenses can magnify background galaxies by a total factor of up to ~50. Here we report an image of an individual star at redshift z=1.49 (dubbed "MACS J…

Magnifying the early episodes of star formation: super star clusters at cosmological distances

E. Vanzella, M. Castellano, M. Meneghetti +27

We study the spectrophotometric properties of a highly magnified (μ~40-70) pair of stellar systems identified at z=3.2222 behind the Hubble Frontier Field galaxy cluster MACS~J0416…

Illuminating gas in-/outflows in the MUSE deepest fields: discovery of Ly-alpha nebulae around forming galaxies at z~3.3

E. Vanzella, I. Balestra, M. Gronke +11

We report on the discovery of extended Ly-alpha nebulae at z~3.3 in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF, ~ 40 kpc X 80 kpc) and behind the Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy cluster MACSJ…

Dark matter fraction of low-mass cluster members probed by galaxy-scale strong lensing

W. G. Parry, C. Grillo, A. Mercurio +8

We present a strong lensing system, composed of 4 multiple images of a source at z = 2.387, created by two lens galaxies, G1 and G2, belonging to the galaxy cluster MACS J1115.9+01…
