On the detectability of strong lensing in near-infrared surveys

Philip Holloway, Aprajita Verma, Philip J. Marshall +2

We present new lensing frequency estimates for existing and forthcoming deep near-infrared surveys, including those from JWST and VISTA. The estimates are based on the JAdes extraG…

Hierarchical Inference of the Lensing Convergence from Photometric Catalogs with Bayesian Graph Neural Networks

Ji Won Park, Simon Birrer, Madison Ueland +6

We present a Bayesian graph neural network (BGNN) that can estimate the weak lensing convergence () from photometric measurements of galaxies along a given line of sight. The me…

From Images to Dark Matter: End-To-End Inference of Substructure From Hundreds of Strong Gravitational Lenses

Sebastian Wagner-Carena, Jelle Aalbers, Simon Birrer +4

Constraining the distribution of small-scale structure in our universe allows us to probe alternatives to the cold dark matter paradigm. Strong gravitational lensing offers a uniqu…
