Discovery of two Einstein crosses from massive post--blue nugget galaxies at z>1 in KiDS
N. R. Napolitano, R. Li, C. Spiniello +18
We report the discovery of two Einstein Crosses (ECs) in the footprint of the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS): KIDS J232940-340922 and KIDS J122456+005048. Using integral field spectrosc…
Projected Cosmological Constraints from Strongly Lensed Supernovae with the Roman Space Telescope
J. D. R. Pierel, S. Rodney, G. Vernardos +3
One of the primary mission objectives for the Roman Space Telescope is to investigate the nature of dark energy with a variety of methods. Observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa)…
New high-quality strong lens candidates with deep learning in the Kilo Degree Survey
R. Li, N. R. Napolitano, C. Tortora +11
We report new high-quality galaxy scale strong lens candidates found in the Kilo Degree Survey data release 4 using Machine Learning. We have developed a new Convolutional Neural N…
The Most Powerful Lenses in the Universe: Quasar Microlensing as a Probe of the Lensing Galaxy
David Pooley, Timo Anguita, Saloni Bhatiani +14
Optical and X-ray observations of strongly gravitationally lensed quasars (especially when four separate images of the quasar are produced) determine not only the amount of matter…
Astro2020 Science White Paper - Quasar Microlensing: Revolutionizing our Understanding of Quasar Structure and Dynamics
Leonidas Moustakas, Matthew O'Dowd, Timo Anguita +20
Microlensing by stars within distant galaxies acting as strong gravitational lenses of multiply-imaged quasars, provides a unique and direct measurement of the internal structure o…
Spectroscopic confirmation and modelling of two lensed quadruple quasars in the Dark Energy Survey public footprint
C. Spiniello, A. V. Sergeyev, L. Marchetti +12
Quadruply lensed quasars are extremely rare objects, but incredibly powerful cosmological tools. Only few dozen are known in the whole sky. Here we present the spectroscopic confir…
