SLICE: Unveiling the Multi-Component Merging Core of SPT-CLJ1150-2805 Through Strong-Lensing Mass Modelling
James R. Betts, Benjamin Beauchesne, Mathilde Jauzac +16
We present a new strong-lensing and X-ray mass model of the merging galaxy cluster SPT-CLJ1150-2805 (), combining JWST NIRCam, HST, Chandra, and VLT/MUSE data to robustly…
Resolving 3 Exotic Hyperbolic-Umbilic Lensing Configurations in the "Cosmic Mantis": An Exploration of RXJ0437.1+0043 with JWST
Catherine Cerny, David J. Lagattuta, Keren Sharon +12
We present an updated strong lensing model for the galaxy cluster RXJ0437.1+0043 (z=0.285) using new JWST NIRCam imaging in four pass-bands. The cluster field notably displays at l…
Host Dependence and Line-of-Sight Effects on Galaxy-Galaxy Strong Lensing in Clusters
Cian Roche, Michael McDonald, Priyamvada Natarajan +4
The cross section for galaxy-galaxy strong lensing (GGSL) events in galaxy clusters has repeatedly been found to be higher in observations than in cosmological simulations. We revi…
A Consistent Implementation of Cluster Strong Lensing in Cosmological Simulation Light Cones
Cian Roche, Mark Vogelsberger, Michael McDonald +9
Galaxy cluster strong gravitational lensing plays a central role in precision cosmology, yet robust theoretical predictions have lagged behind an abundance of high-quality strong l…
SN 2022riv in RX J2129: Discovery, Spectroscopic Classification, and Microlensing of a Strongly Lensed Type Ia Supernova from JWST and HST Observations
Birendra Dhanasingham, Patrick L. Kelly, Wenlei Chen +27
The multiply imaged SN 2022riv was discovered through a search of galaxy cluster fields as part of a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) SNAP program to find highly magnified stars. The s…
SLICE -- Combining Strong Lensing and X-ray in AC 114. Further Insights into the Merger Scenario
Marceau Limousin, Benjamin Beauchesne, Keren Sharon +14
AC114 is a historically significant galaxy cluster, being one of the first strong lensing clusters detected from the ground in the early 1990s, prior to the launch of the HST. Desp…
