The evolution of the size-mass relation at =1-3 derived from the complete Hubble Frontier Fields data set

Lilan Yang, Guido Roberts-Borsani, Tommaso Treu +3

We measure the size-mass relation and its evolution between redshifts 13, using galaxies lensed by six foreground Hubble Frontier Fields clusters. The power afforded by strong…

A versatile tool for cluster lensing source reconstruction. I. methodology and illustration on sources in the Hubble Frontier Field Cluster MACS J0717.5+3745

Lilan Yang, Simon Birrer, Tommaso Treu

We describe a general purpose method to reconstruct the intrinsic properties of sources lensed by the gravitational potential of foreground clusters of galaxies. The tool Lenstruct…

How does the Earth's rotation affect predictions of gravitational wave strong lensing rates?

Lilan Yang, Xuheng Ding, Marek Biesiada +2

The next generation of ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors, e.g. the Einstein Telescope, is expected to observe a significant number of strongly lensed GW events as pred…

Swift Monitoring Observations of Mrk 231: Detection of Ultraviolet Variability

Lilan Yang, Xinyu Dai, Youjun Lu +2

We analyze 168 Swift monitoring observations of the nearest broad absorption line quasar Mrk 231 in the UV and X-ray bands, where we detect significant variability in the UV ($\sim…

X-Ray Properties of AGN in Brightest Cluster Galaxies. I.A Systematic Study of the Chandra Archive in the and Redshift Range

Lilan Yang, Paolo Tozzi, Heng Yu +5

We present a search for nuclear X-ray emission in the brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) of a sample of groups and clusters of galaxies extracted from the Chandra archive. The exqui…
