Model independent lensing sub-structure detection with multiply-imaged star clusters constellations
Leo W. H. Fung, Tom Broadhurst, Sung Kei Li +3
A broad class of dark matter (DM) models predicts the existence of sub-structures residing in DM haloes on sub-resolvable angular scales. Techniques to extract such a generic featu…
Remembering George Smoot
John Berliner, Tom Broadhurst, Martin Bucher +31
George Smoot (1945-2025) was a major figure in observational cosmology, particularly through his role in the precision measurement of the CMB dipole and the discovery of the primor…
The Subversive Role of Excessive External Shear in Concealing Lensing Anomalies
Amruth Alfred, Shashpal Singh, Rommulus Francis Lewis +5
To best reproduce observed multiply-lensed lensed images, lens models usually incorporate shear attributed to objects unrelated to the lensing galaxy (i.e., external shear): whethe…
First Statistical Study of Over 100 Magnified Stellar Events at Redshift with JWST
J. M. Palencia, Fengwu Sun, J. M. Diego +25
Highly magnified stars at cosmological distances () become detectable thanks to microlensing by intracluster stars near the critical curves of galaxy clusters. Multi…
Magnification bias reveals severe contamination in Hubble Frontier Field photo-z catalogs
Jiashuo Zhang, Jeremy Lim, Tom Broadhurst +4
Gravitational lensing by massive galaxy clusters enables faint distant galaxies to be more abundantly detected than in blank fields, thereby allowing one to construct galaxy lumino…
JWST's PEARLS: Temperatures of Nine Highly Magnified Stars in a Galaxy at Redshift 0.94 and Simulated Stellar Population Dependence on Stellar Metallicity and the Initial Mass Function
Hayley Williams, Patrick L. Kelly, Rogier A. Windhorst +17
We present stellar atmosphere modeling of JWST NIRCam photometry of nine highly magnified individual stars in a single galaxy at redshift z=0.94 known as the Warhol arc, which is s…
