Three-form dark energy: constraints and multi-probe comparison with CDM

Mariam Bouhmadi-López, Hsu-Wen Chiang, Carlos G. Boiza +3

Three-form fields provide a theoretically well-motivated framework for dark energy, arising in higher-dimensional theories and exhibiting a rich cosmological phenomenology. We inve…

SN 2022riv in RX J2129: Discovery, Spectroscopic Classification, and Microlensing of a Strongly Lensed Type Ia Supernova from JWST and HST Observations

Birendra Dhanasingham, Patrick L. Kelly, Wenlei Chen +27

The multiply imaged SN 2022riv was discovered through a search of galaxy cluster fields as part of a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) SNAP program to find highly magnified stars. The s…

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…

Signatures of Fuzzy Dark Matter Inside Radial Critical Curves

J. M. Palencia, Paloma Morilla, Sung Kei Li +5

We investigate the strong gravitational lensing properties of fuzzy dark matter (FDM) halos, focusing on the magnification properties near radial critical curves (CCs). Using simul…

Transient star B/R ratio and star formation in lensed galaxies

Sung Kei Li, Jose M. Palencia, Jose M. Diego +8

The extreme magnification from galaxy clusters and microlenses therein allows the detection of individual, luminous stars in lensed galaxies as transient events, and hence provides…

Microlensing at Cosmological Distances: Event Rate Predictions in the Warhol Arc of MACS 0416

J. M. Palencia, J. M. Diego, L. Dai +13

Highly magnified stars ( 100) are now outinely identified as transient events at cosmological distances thanks to microlensing by intra-cluster stars near the critical curve…
