The OLS-lens survey: The discovery of five new galaxy-galaxy strong lenses from the SDSS

J. P. Willis, P. C. Hewett, S. J. Warren +2

Bright galaxy-galaxy strong lenses are much more powerful than lensed quasars for measuring the mass profiles of galaxies, but until this year only a handful have been known. Here…

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses IV. Models of prospective time-delay lenses

P. Saha, F. Courbin, D. Sluse +2

Aims: To predict time delays for a sample of gravitationally lensed quasars and to evaluate the accuracy that can be realistically achieved on the value of H_0. Methods: We conside…
