Probing Dark Energy via Weak Gravitational Lensing with the SuperNova Acceleration Probe (SNAP)
SNAP Collaboration
SNAP is a candidate for the Joint Dark Energy Mission (JDEM) that seeks to place constraints on the dark energy using two distinct methods. The first, Type Ia SN, is discussed in a…
CLASS B0631+519: Last of the CLASS lenses
T. York, N. Jackson, I. W. A. Browne +13
We report the discovery of a new gravitational lens system from the CLASS survey, CLASS B0631+519. VLA, MERLIN and VLBA observations show a doubly-imaged radio core, a doubly-image…
Measuring Supermassive Black Holes in Distant Galaxies with Central Lensed Images
D. Rusin, C. R. Keeton, J. N. Winn
The supermassive black hole at the center of a distant galaxy can be weighed, in rare but realistic cases, when the galaxy acts as a strong gravitational lens. The central image th…
The Evolution and Structure of Early-type Field Galaxies: A Combined Statistical Analysis of Gravitational Lenses
D. Rusin, C. S. Kochanek
We introduce a framework for simultaneously investigating the structure and luminosity evolution of early-type gravitational lens galaxies. The method is based on the fundamental p…
CLASS B2108+213: A new wide separation gravitational lens system
J. P. McKean, I. W. A. Browne, N. J. Jackson +15
We present observations of CLASS B2108+213, the widest separation gravitational lens system discovered by the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey. Radio imaging using the VLA at 8.46 GHz an…
Supernova / Acceleration Probe: A Satellite Experiment to Study the Nature of the Dark Energy
SNAP Collaboration, G. Aldering, W. Althouse +109
The Supernova / Acceleration Probe (SNAP) is a proposed space-based experiment designed to study the dark energy and alternative explanations of the acceleration of the Universe's…
