Microlensing analysis of 14.5-year light curves in SDSS J1004+4112: Quasar accretion disk size and intracluster stellar mass fraction
R. Forés-Toribio, J. A. Muñoz, C. Fian +2
Context. The gravitational lens system SDSS J1004+4112 was the first known example of a quasar lensed by a galaxy cluster. The interest in this system has been renewed following th…
The Abundance of Clustered Primordial Black Holes from Quasar Microlensing
Sven Heydenreich, Evencio Mediavilla, Jorge Jiménez-Vicente +2
While elementary particles are the favored candidate for the elusive dark matter, primordial black holes (PBHs) have also been considered to fill that role. Gravitational microlens…
First Direct Evidence for Keplerian Rotation in Quasar Inner Broad Line Regions
C. Fian, J. Jiménez-Vicente, E. Mediavilla +4
We introduce a novel method to derive rotation curves with light-day spatial resolution of the inner regions of lensed quasars. We aim to probe the kinematics of the inner part of…
Revealing the inner workings of the lensed quasar SDSS J1339+1310: Insights from microlensing analysis
C. Fian, J. A. Muñoz, J. Jiménez-Vicente +4
We aim to unveil the structure of the continuum and broad-emission line (BEL) emitting regions in the gravitationally lensed quasar SDSS J1339+1310 by examining the distinct signat…
Single-epoch and Differential Astrometric Microlensing of Quasars
R. Forés-Toribio, E. Mediavilla, J. A. Muñoz +3
We propose and discuss a new experimental approach to measure the centroid shift induced by gravitational microlensing in the images of lensed quasars (astrometric microlensing). O…
Estimate of the Accretion Disk Size in the Gravitationally Lensed Quasar HE 0435-1223 using Microlensing Magnification Statistics
C. Fian, E. Mediavilla, J. Jiménez-Vicente +2
We present a measurement of the accretion disk size of the quadruple lensed quasar HE 0435-1223 from well-sampled 13-yr COSMOGRAIL optical light curves. Using accurate time delays…
