Bright lenses are easy to find: Spectroscopic confirmation of lensed quasars in the Southern Sky
C. Spiniello, A. Agnello, A. V. Sergeyev +4
Gravitationally lensed quasars are valuable, but extremely rare, probes of observational cosmology and extragalactic astrophysics. Progress in these fields has been limited just by…
Is every strong lens model unhappy in its own way? Uniform modelling of a sample of 13 quadruply+ imaged quasars
A. J. Shajib, S. Birrer, T. Treu +70
Strong-gravitational lens systems with quadruply-imaged quasars (quads) are unique probes to address several fundamental problems in cosmology and astrophysics. Although they are i…
The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2016 follow-up campaign. II. New quasar lenses from double component fitting
T. Anguita, P. L. Schechter, N. Kuropatkin +56
We report upon the follow up of 34 candidate lensed quasars found in the Dark Energy Survey using NTT-EFOSC, Magellan-IMACS, KECK-ESI and SOAR-SAMI. These candidates were selected…
Another Quadruply Lensed Quasar from the VST-ATLAS Survey
P. L. Schechter, T. Anguita, N. D. Morgan +2
We report the quadruple nature of the source WISE 025942.9-163543 as observed in the VST-ATLAS survey. Spectra of the two brightest images show quasar emission lines at z=2.16. The…
COSMOGRAIL XVII: Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080
V. Bonvin, J. H. H. Chan, M. Millon +24
We present time-delay estimates for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080. Our resuls are based on almost daily observations for seven months at the ESO MPIA 2.2m telescope at La…
A Gravitationally Lensed Quasar Discovered in OGLE
Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska, S. Kozłowski, C. Lemon +15
We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed quasar (double) from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) identified inside the 670 sq. deg area encomp…
