DESI Strong Lens Foundry IV: Spectroscopic Confirmation of DESI Lens Candidates with VLT/MUSE
Emerald Lin, Ivonne Toro Bertolla, Aleksandar Cikota +6
We present integral field spectroscopic observations of 76 strong gravitational lens candidates identified with a residual neural network in the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys, obtain…
DESI Strong Lens Foundry III: Keck Spectroscopy for Strong Lenses Discovered Using Residual Neural Networks
Shrihan Agarwal, Xiaosheng Huang, William Sheu +49
We present spectroscopic data of strong lenses and their source galaxies using the Keck Near-Infrared Echellette Spectrometer (NIRES) and the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (…
DESI Strong Lens Foundry V: A Sample of HST-Observed Strong Lenses Modeled with GIGA-Lens
Xiaosheng Huang, David Alvarez-Garcia, Monica Ubeda +13
We present six galaxy-scale strong lenses with HST imaging modeled using GIGA-Lens. This is Paper V of the DESI Strong Lens Foundry series. These systems were discovered in the DES…
DESI Strong Lens Foundry II: DESI Spectroscopy for Strong Lens Candidates
Xiaosheng Huang, Jose Carlos Inchausti, Christopher J. Storfer +59
We present the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Strong Lensing Secondary Target Program. This is a spectroscopic follow-up program for strong gravitational lens candidat…
DESI Strong Lens Foundry I: HST Observations and Modeling with GIGA-Lens
X. Huang, S. Baltasar, N. Ratier-Werbin +56
We present the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Strong Lens Foundry. We discovered new strong gravitational lens candidates in the DESI Legacy Imaging Survey…
COOL-LAMPS. VII. Quantifying Strong-lens Scaling Relations with 177 Cluster-scale Strong Gravitational Lenses in DECaLS
Simon D. Mork, Michael D. Gladders, Gourav Khullar +27
We estimate the Einstein-radius-enclosed total mass for 177 cluster-scale strong gravitational lenses identified by the ChicagO Optically selected Lenses Located At the Margins of…
