Transformational astrophysics and exoplanet science with Habitable Worlds Observatory's High Resolution Imager
Vincent Van Eylen, Richard Massey, Saeeda Awan +167
Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will be NASA's flagship space telescope of the 2040s, designed to search for life on other planets and to transform broad areas of astrophysics.…
Radiation damage to the Hubble Space Telescope during two Solar cycles, and correction of Charge Transfer Inefficiency using ArCTIc
Richard Massey, Jacob A. Kegerreis, Juan Paolo Lorenzo Gerardo Barrios +8
From 2002 to 2025, the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys has suffered in the harsh radiation environment above the protection of the Earth's atmosphere. We track…
Not so dark, not so dense: an alternative explanation for the lensing subhalo in SDSSJ0946+1006
Qiuhan He, Andrew Robertson, James W. Nightingale +12
Previous studies of the strong lens system SDSSJ0946+1006 have reported a dark matter subhalo with an unusually high central density, potentially challenging the standard cold dark…
Probing Dark Matter Substructures with Free-Form Modelling: A Case Study of the `Jackpot' Strong Lens
Xiaoyue Cao, Ran Li, James W. Nightingale +12
Characterising the population and internal structure of sub-galactic halos is critical for constraining the nature of dark matter. These halos can be detected near galaxies that ac…
The "Little Dark Dot": Evidence for Self-interacting Dark Matter in the Strong Lens SDSS J0946+1006?
Shubo Li, Ran Li, Kaihao Wang +13
Previous studies, based on precise modeling of a gravitationally lensing image, have identified what may be an extremely compact, dark perturber in the well-known lensing system SD…
The COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS) II: depth, resolution, and NIR coverage from JWST reveal 17 spectacular lenses
Guillaume Mahler, James W. Nightingale, Natalie B. Hogg +27
The COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS) presents the first systematic search for strong gravitational lenses in the COSMOS-Web field using data from the \textit{James Webb} Space Telesc…
Strong LensIng and Cluster Evolution (SLICE) with JWST: Early Results, Lens Models, and High-Redshift Detections
Catherine Cerny, Guillaume Mahler, Keren Sharon +24
We leverage JWST's superb resolution to derive strong lensing mass maps of 14 clusters, spanning a redshift range of and a mass range of $M_{500}\sim2-12 \times…
The COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS) III: forecasts versus data
Natalie B. Hogg, James W. Nightingale, Quihan He +25
We compare forecasts for the abundance and properties of strong gravitational lenses in the COSMOS-Web survey, a deg survey of the COSMOS field using the NIRCam and MIRI…
The COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS) I: Discovery of >100 high redshift strong lenses in contiguous JWST imaging
James Nightingale, Guillaume Mahler, Jacqueline McCleary +27
We present the COSMOS-Web Lens Survey (COWLS), a sample of over 100 strong lens candidates from the \,deg COSMOS-Web survey, discovered using exquisite James Webb Space T…
The COSMOS-Web ring: Spectroscopic confirmation of the background source at z = 5.1
Marko Shuntov, Shuowen Jin, Wilfried Mercier +22
We report the spectroscopic confirmation of the background source of the most distant Einstein ring known to date, the COSMOS-Web ring. This system consists of a complete Einstein…
Measuring the Stellar-to-Halo Mass Relation at Solar masses, using forthcoming space-based imaging of galaxy-galaxy strong lenses
Kaihao Wang, Xiaoyue Cao, Ran Li +11
The stellar-to-halo mass relation (SHMR) is central to understanding the co-evolution of galaxies and their host dark matter haloes, yet it remains weakly constrained for dwarf gal…
