Scanning For Dark Matter Subhalos in Hubble Space Telescope Imaging of 54 Strong Lenses
James W. Nightingale, Qiuhan He, Xiaoyue Cao +9
The cold dark matter (DM) model predicts that every galaxy contains thousands of DM subhalos; almost all other DM models include a physical process that smooths away the subhalos.…
Beyond the bulge-halo conspiracy? Density profiles of Early-type galaxies from extended-source strong lensing
Amy Etherington, James W. Nightingale, Richard Massey +9
Observations suggest that the dark matter and stars in early-type galaxies `conspire' to produce a surprisingly simple distribution of total mass, , with $γ\appr…
Testing strong lensing subhalo detection with a cosmological simulation
Qiuhan He, James Nightingale, Andrew Robertson +9
Strong gravitational lensing offers a compelling test of the cold dark matter paradigm, as it allows for subhaloes with masses of M and below to be detected. W…
Automated galaxy-galaxy strong lens modelling: no lens left behind
Amy Etherington, James W. Nightingale, Richard Massey +9
The distribution of dark and luminous matter can be mapped around galaxies that gravitationally lens background objects into arcs or Einstein rings. New surveys will soon observe h…
