Neural Deprojection of Galaxy Stellar Mass Profiles
M. J. Yantovski-Barth, Hengyue Zhang, Nolan Smyth +4
We introduce a neural approach to dynamical modeling of galaxies that replaces traditional imaging-based deprojections with a differentiable mapping. Specifically, we train a neura…
Mind the Information Gap: Unveiling Detailed Morphologies of z 0.5-1.0 Galaxies with SLACS Strong Lenses and Data-Driven Analysis
Ronan Legin, Connor Stone, Alexandre Adam +5
We present new state-of-the-art lens models for strong gravitational lensing systems from the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) survey, developed within a Bayesian framework that employs high…
Pixellated Posterior Sampling of Point Spread Functions in Astronomical Images
Connor Stone, Ronan Legin, Alexandre Adam +4
We introduce a novel framework for upsampled Point Spread Function (PSF) modeling using pixel-level Bayesian inference. Accurate PSF characterization is critical for precision meas…
Blind Strong Gravitational Lensing Inversion: Joint Inference of Source and Lens Mass with Score-Based Models
Gabriel Missael Barco, Ronan Legin, Connor Stone +2
Score-based models can serve as expressive, data-driven priors for scientific inverse problems. In strong gravitational lensing, they enable posterior inference of a background gal…
