Data downloaded via parachute from a NASA super-pressure balloon
Ellen L. Sirks, Richard Massey, Ajay S. Gill +40
In April to May 2023, the superBIT telescope was lifted to the Earth's stratosphere by a helium-filled super-pressure balloon, to acquire astronomical imaging from above (99.5% of)…
A full reconstruction of two galaxy clusters intra-cluster medium with strong gravitational lensing
Joseph F. V. Allingham, Céline Bœhm, Dominique Eckert +6
Whilst X-rays and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich observations allow to study the properties of the intra-cluster medium (ICM) of galaxy clusters, their gravitational potential may be constrain…
Self-consistent Combined HST, K-band, and Spitzer Photometric Catalogs of the BUFFALO Survey Fields
Amanda Pagul, F. Javier Sánchez, Iary Davidzon +12
This manuscript presents new astronomical source catalogs using data from the BUFFALO Survey. These catalogs contain detailed information for over 100,000 astronomical sources in t…
Lensing in the Blue II: Estimating the Sensitivity of Stratospheric Balloons to Weak Gravitational Lensing
Jacqueline E. McCleary, Spencer W. Everett, Mohamed M. Shaaban +23
The Superpressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope (SuperBIT) is a diffraction-limited, wide-field, 0.5 m, near-infrared to near-ultraviolet observatory designed to exploit the stra…
BUFFALO/Flashlights: Constraints on the abundance of lensed supergiant stars in the Spock galaxy at redshift 1
Jose M. Diego, Sung Kei Li, Ashish K. Meena +27
We present a constraint on the abundance of supergiant (SG) stars at redshift z approx. 1, based on recent observations of a strongly lensed arc at this redshift. First we derive a…
RXJ0437+00: Constraining Dark Matter with Exotic Gravitational Lenses
David J. Lagattuta, Johan Richard, Harald Ebeling +6
We present the first strong-gravitational-lensing analysis of the galaxy cluster RXJ0437.1+0043 (RXJ0437; z = 0.285). Newly obtained, deep MUSE observations, Keck/MOSFIRE near-infr…
