GERLUMPH Data Release 1: High-resolution cosmological microlensing magnification maps and eResearch tools
Georgios Vernardos, Christopher J Fluke, Nicholas F Bate +1
As synoptic all-sky surveys begin to discover new multiply lensed quasars, the flow of data will enable statistical cosmological microlensing studies of sufficient size to constrai…
The masses of Local Group dwarf spheroidal galaxies: The death of the universal mass profile
Michelle L. M. Collins, Scott C. Chapman, R. M. Rich +12
We investigate the claim that all dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) reside within halos that share a common, universal mass profile as has been derived for dSphs of the Galaxy. By…
A kinematic study of the Andromeda dwarf spheroidal system
Michelle L. M. Collins, Scott C. Chapman, R. Michael Rich +12
We present a homogeneous kinematic analysis of red giant branch stars within 18 of the 28 Andromeda dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies, obtained using the Keck I LRIS and Keck II DEI…
A GPU-Enabled, High-Resolution Cosmological Microlensing Parameter Survey
N. F. Bate, C. J. Fluke
In the era of synoptic surveys, the number of known gravitationally lensed quasars is set to increase by over an order of magnitude. These new discoveries will enable a move from s…
Gravitational Microlensing of a Reverberating Quasar Broad Line Region - I. Method and Qualitative Results
H. Garsden, N. F. Bate, G. F. Lewis
The kinematics and morphology of the broad emission line region (BELR) of quasars are the subject of significant debate. The two leading methods for constraining BELR properties ar…
A microlensing measurement of dark matter fractions in three lensing galaxies
N. F. Bate, D. J. E. Floyd, R. L. Webster +1
Direct measurements of dark matter distributions in galaxies are currently only possible through the use of gravitational lensing observations. Combinations of lens modelling and s…
