Lensed stars in galaxy-galaxy strong lensing -- a JWST prediction for the Cosmic Horseshoe

Sung Kei Li, Luke Weisenbach, Thomas E. Collett +10

We explore for the first time the possibility of detecting lensed star transients in galaxy-galaxy strong lensing systems upon repeated, deep imaging using the {\it James-Webb Spac…

Blowing Star Formation Away in AGN Hosts (BAH) -- III. Serendipitous discovery of a star-forming galaxy lensed by the galactic bulge of CGCG 012-070 using JWST NIRSpec

Rogemar A. Riffel, Carlos R. Melo-Carneiro, Gabriel Luan Souza-Oliveira +10

We report the detection of a gravitationally lensed galaxy by the nearby spiral galaxy CGCG 012-070 () using Integral Field Unit (IFU) observations with the Near-Infrare…

Unveiling a 36 Billion Solar Mass Black Hole at the Centre of the Cosmic Horseshoe Gravitational Lens

Carlos R. Melo-Carneiro, Thomas E. Collett, Lindsay J. Oldham +4

Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are found at the centre of every massive galaxy, with their masses tightly connected to their host galaxies through a co-evolution over cosmic time…

Systematics in ETG Mass Profile Modelling: Strong Lensing & Stellar Dynamics

Carlos R. Melo-Carneiro, Cristina Furlanetto, Ana L. Chies-Santos

Strong gravitational lensing and stellar dynamics are independent and powerful methods to probe the total gravitational potential of galaxies, and thus, their total mass profile. H…

Probing General Relativity in galactic scales at z

Carlos R. Melo-Carneiro, Cristina Furlanetto, Ana L. Chies-Santos

General Relativity (GR) has been successfully tested mainly at Solar system scales; however, galaxy-scale tests have become popular in the last few decades. In this work, we invest…
