TDCOSMO 2026: new insights on the Hubble tension from strong lensing time delays

TDCOSMO Collaboration, Simon Birrer, Michele Cappellari +26

We discuss the measurement of the Hubble constant () in flat cold dark matter cosmology based on the blind hierarchical analysis of 11 multiply-imaged quasars (hereafter t…

TDCOSMO 2026: A 3% measurement of the Hubble constant from strong lensing and stellar kinematics

TDCOSMO Collaboration, Simon Birrer, Michele Cappellari +26

We present cosmological constraints from 11 strongly lensed quasars with measured time delays (hereafter, the TDCOSMO-2026 sample). In addition to expanding the sample, we improve…

TDCOSMO XXX: Spatially resolved kinematics of the deflectors in time-delay lens systems B1608+656 and SDSSJ1206+4332 from JWST-NIRSpec observation

Pritom Mozumdar, Shawn Knabel, Anowar J. Shajib +3

We present spatially resolved stellar kinematics of the deflector galaxies in two time-delay lens systems, B1608+656 and SDSS J1206+4332, measured from JWST NIRSpec integral field…

TDCOSMO XXIX: JWST/NIRSpec IFU Spatially Resolved Kinematics of Three Time-delay Lenses

Shawn Knabel, Pritom Mozumdar, Anowar J. Shajib +8

Spatially resolved stellar kinematics are critical to the high precision achieved by cosmological probes utilizing time delays of strongly lensed quasars. Combined with high-resolu…

TDCOSMO. XXVII. JWST-based Lens Models and H Measurement of WFI2033, HE0435, and PG1115

D. M. Williams, T. Treu, D. P. Johnson +13

Time-delay cosmography offers a one-step, distance-ladder-independent route to the Hubble-Lemaitre constant, H_0. We present new cosmography-grade lens models of three quadruply im…

Constraining the Physical Properties of Quadruply Lensed Quasars using Optical-to-X-Ray Data

Kriti Kamal Gupta, Dominique Sluse, Maarten Baes +5

Gravitational lensing of luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN; or quasars) can be used as a natural telescope to zoom in on their inner structures. With more and more lensed AGN be…

TDCOSMO XXV: Measuring H0 to 6.5% precision with quasar strong lensing and maximally flexible mass-sheet dynamics

William Sheu, Tommaso Treu, Martin Millon +16

We present a blind time-delay cosmography measurement of the Hubble-Lemaître constant based on the quadruply imaged quasar SDSSJ1433+6007. Our analysis combines deep Hubble S…

Measurement of the minimum cold dark matter halo mass with strong gravitational lensing

A. M. Nierenberg, D. Gilman, T. Treu +19

We explore the lowest mass limit that can be placed on the halo mass function in CDM using 28 strong gravitational lenses. For this purpose, we study an extreme model in which the…

MAGNUS III: Mild evolution of the total density slope in massive early-type galaxies since z1 from dynamical modeling of MUSE integral-field stellar kinematics

Pritom Mozumdar, Michele Cappellari, Christopher D. Fassnacht +1

We investigate the total mass density slope evolution in massive early-type galaxies (ETGs) over the last 6.5 billion years (). We perform a detailed dynamical analys…
