Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). AstroVink: A vision transformer approach to find strong gravitational lens systems
Euclid Collaboration, S. H. Vincken, K. Rojas +302
We present AstroVink, a vision transformer classifier designed for automated identification of strong lens candidates in Euclid imaging. We build upon the DINOv2 encoder, fine tune…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). Searching for giant gravitational arcs in galaxy clusters with mask region-based convolutional neural networks
Euclid Collaboration, L. Bazzanini, G. Angora +306
Strong gravitational lensing (SL) by galaxy clusters is a powerful probe of their inner mass distribution and a key test bed for cosmological models. However, the detection of SL e…
Searching for strong lensing by late-type galaxies in UNIONS
J. A. Acevedo Barroso, B. Clément, F. Courbin +8
Recent wide-field galaxy surveys have led to an explosion in the number of galaxy-scale strong gravitational lens candidates. However, the vast majority of them feature massive lum…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). LEMON -- Lens Modelling with Neural networks. Automated and fast modelling of Euclid gravitational lenses with a singular isothermal ellipsoid mass profile
Euclid Collaboration, V. Busillo, C. Tortora +312
The Euclid mission aims to survey around 14000 deg^{2} of extragalactic sky, providing around 10^{5} gravitational lens images. Modelling of gravitational lenses is fundamental to…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). From simulations to sky: Advancing machine-learning lens detection with real Euclid data
Euclid Collaboration, N. E. P. Lines, T. E. Collett +301
In the era of large-scale surveys like Euclid, machine learning has become an essential tool for identifying rare yet scientifically valuable objects, such as strong gravitational…
Euclid: A machine-learning search for dual and lensed AGN at sub-arcsec separations
L. Ulivi, F. Mannucci, M. Scialpi +189
Cosmological models of hierarchical structure formation predict the existence of a widespread population of dual accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) on kpc-scale separations…
