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…
JWST lensed quasar dark matter survey IV: Stringent warm dark matter constraints from the joint reconstruction of extended lensed arcs and quasar flux ratios
D. Gilman, A. M. Nierenberg, T. Treu +23
We present a measurement of the free-streaming length of dark matter (DM) and subhalo abundance around 28 quadruple image strong lenses using observations from JWST MIRI presented…
TDCOSMO XXV: A "soup-to-nuts" 6.5% measurement strong lensing and dynamics with a maximally flexible mass sheet
William Sheu, Tommaso Treu, Martin Millon +16
We present a blind time-delay cosmography measurement of the Hubble constant based on the quadruply imaged quasar SDSSJ1433+6007. Our analysis combines deep Hubble Space Tele…
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…
TDCOSMO XXIV. First spatially resolved kinematics of the lens galaxy obtained using JWST-NIRSpec to improve time-delay cosmography
Anowar J. Shajib, Tommaso Treu, Sherry H. Suyu +15
Spatially resolved stellar kinematics has become a key ingredient in time-delay cosmography to break the mass-sheet degeneracy in the mass profile and in turn provide a precise con…
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…
