Magnetoluminescence

Roger Blandford, Yajie Yuan, Masahiro Hoshino +1

Pulsar Wind Nebulae, Blazars, Gamma Ray Bursts and Magnetars all contain regions where the electromagnetic energy density greatly exceeds the plasma energy density. These sources e…

The peculiar light-curve of J1415+1320: A case study in extreme scattering events

H. K. Vedantham, A. C. S. Readhead, T. Hovatta +12

The radio light-curve of J1415+1320 (PKS 1413+135) shows time-symmetric and recurring U-shaped features across the cm-wave and mm-wave bands. The symmetry of these features points…

Dissecting the Gravitational Lens B1608+656. II. Precision Measurements of the Hubble Constant, Spatial Curvature, and the Dark Energy Equation of State

S. H. Suyu, P. J. Marshall, M. W. Auger +5

Strong gravitational lens systems with measured time delays between the multiple images provide a method for measuring the "time-delay distance" to the lens, and thus the Hubble co…

Dissecting the Gravitational Lens B1608+656. I. Lens Potential Reconstruction

S. H. Suyu, P. J. Marshall, R. D. Blandford +4

Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful technique for probing galaxy mass distributions and for measuring cosmological parameters. We present a pixelated approach to modeling si…

CLASS B1152+199 and B1359+154: Two New Gravitational Lens Systems Discovered in the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey

S. T. Myers, D. Rusin, C. D. Fassnacht +9

The third phase of the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS) has recently been completed, bringing the total number of sources imaged to over 15000 in the CLASS and JVAS combined surv…

The complex gravitational lens system B1933+503

C. M. Sykes, I. W. A. Browne, N. J. Jackson +15

We report the discovery of the most complex arcsec-scale radio gravitational lens system yet known. B1933+503 was found during the course of the CLASS survey and MERLIN and VLA rad…
