Gravitational Lenses in UNIONS and Euclid (GLUE) I: A Search for Strong Gravitational Lenses in UNIONS with Subaru, CFHT, and Pan-STARRS Data
Christopher J. Storfer, Eugene A. Magnier, Xiaosheng Huang +11
We present the results of our pipeline for discovering strong gravitational lenses in the ongoing Ultraviolet Near-Infrared Optical Northern Survey (UNIONS). We successfully train…
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…
Strong Lens Discoveries in DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys DR10 with Two Deep Learning Architectures
Jose Carlos Inchausti, Christopher J. Storfer, Xiaosheng Huang +11
We have conducted a search for strong gravitational lensing systems in the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Legacy Imaging Surveys Data Release 10 (DR10). This paper is…
ML-Driven Strong Lens Discoveries: Down to and
Ethan Silver, R. Wang, Xiaosheng Huang +3
We present results on extending the strong lens discovery space down to much smaller Einstein radii () and much lower halo mass ($M_\mathrm{halo}<10^{11}M_\odot…
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…
