TDCOSMO. XXIII. Measurement of the Hubble constant from the doubly lensed quasar HE1104-1805
Eric Paic, Frédéric Courbin, Christopher D. Fassnacht +18
Time-delay cosmography leverages strongly lensed quasars to measure the Universe's current expansion rate, H_0, independently from other methods. While the latest TDCOSMO results r…
HST Confirms Sub-5 kpc Dual Quasar Pairs at Cosmic Noon
Qian Wang, Xuheng Ding, John Silverman +12
During cosmic noon (), when both star formation and black hole growth peaked, galaxy mergers are predicted to trigger dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) that eventually co…
MAGNUS II: Rotational support of massive early-type galaxies decreased over the past 7 billion years
Pritom Mozumdar, Michele Cappellari, Christopher D. Fassnacht +1
Understanding how the internal kinematics of massive galaxies evolve is key to constraining the physical processes that drive their assembly. We investigate the evolution of rotati…
MAGNUS I: A MUSE-DEEP Sample of Early-type Galaxies at Intermediate Redshift
Pritom Mozumdar, Michele Cappellari, Christopher D. Fassnacht +1
We present a sample of 213 early-type galaxies (ETGs) at redshifts . We combine deep integral-field spectroscopy from the MUSE-DEEP survey with high-resolution HST…
Macromodel-free flux-ratio prediction in quadruply imaged quasars with local constraints from lensed arcs
Hadrien Paugnat, Tommaso Treu, Daniel Gilman
Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful cosmological probe, providing a direct tool to unveil the properties of dark matter (DM) on sub-galactic scales. In particular, flux-rati…
Pristine Massive Star Formation Caught at the Break of Cosmic Dawn
Takahiro Morishita, Zhaoran Liu, Massimo Stiavelli +3
The existence of galaxies with no heavy elements is a key prediction of cosmological models. So far no "zero-metallicity", or Population~III, galaxies have been identified. Here, w…
An accurate measurement of the spectral resolution of the JWST Near Infrared Spectrograph
Anowar J. Shajib, Tommaso Treu, Alejandra Melo +4
The spectral resolution () of spectroscopic data is crucial information for accurate kinematic measurements. In this letter, we present a robust measurement of the…
The BoRG- Survey: Analogs at to the UV-luminous Galaxy Population at
Sofía Rojas-Ruiz, Guido Roberts-Borsani, Takahiro Morishita +7
The population of bright galaxies at discovered by JWST, including the so-called "blue monsters", has been difficult to reconcile with standard galaxy evolution models…
FRB 20250316A: A Brilliant and Nearby One-Off Fast Radio Burst Localized to 13 parsec Precision
FRB Collaboration, Thomas C. Abbott, Daniel Amouyal +83
Precise localizations of a small number of repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) have enabled multiwavelength follow-up observations rev…
TDCOSMO XXIV. First spatially resolved kinematics of the lens galaxy obtained using JWST-NIRSpec to improve time-delay cosmography
Anowar J. Shajib, Tommaso Treu, Sherry H. Suyu +15
Spatially resolved stellar kinematics has become a key ingredient in time-delay cosmography to break the mass-sheet degeneracy in the mass profile and in turn provide a precise con…
TDCOSMO 2025: Cosmological constraints from strong lensing time delays
TDCOSMO Collaboration, Simon Birrer, Elizabeth J. Buckley-Geer +30
We present cosmological constraints from 8 strongly lensed quasars (hereafter, the TDCOSMO-2025 sample). Building on previous work, our analysis incorporated new deflector stellar…
TDCOSMO XXI. Accurate stellar velocity dispersions of the SL2S lens sample and the fundamental plane of the lensing mass
Pritom Mozumdar, Shawn Knabel, Tommaso Treu +4
We reanalyzed spectra that were taken as part of the SL2S lens galaxy survey with the goal to obtain the stellar velocity dispersion with a precision and accuracy sufficient for ti…
TDCOSMO XVII. New time delays in 22 lensed quasars from optical monitoring with the ESO-VST 2.6m and MPG 2.2m telescopes
Frédéric Dux, Martin Millon, Aymeric Galan +29
We present new time delays, the main ingredient of time delay cosmography, for 22 lensed quasars resulting from high-cadence r-band monitoring on the 2.6 m ESO VLT Survey Telescope…
The CosmoVerse White Paper: Addressing observational tensions in cosmology with systematics and fundamental physics
Eleonora Di Valentino, Jackson Levi Said, Adam Riess +533
The standard model of cosmology has provided a good phenomenological description of a wide range of observations both at astrophysical and cosmological scales for several decades.…
