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…
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). 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…
Fabrication-tolerant frequency conversion in thin film lithium niobate waveguide with layer-poled modal phase matching
O. Hefti, J. -E. Tremblay, A. Volpini +11
Thanks to its high quadratic nonlinear susceptibilty and low propagation losses, thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) on insulator is an ideal platform for laser frequency conversion a…
Euclid: The Early Release Observations Lens Search Experiment
J. A. Acevedo Barroso, C. M. O'Riordan, B. Clément +206
We investigated the ability of the Euclid telescope to detect galaxy-scale gravitational lenses. To do so, we performed a systematic visual inspection of the Eucl…
Euclid: Finding strong gravitational lenses in the Early Release Observations using convolutional neural networks
B. C. Nagam, J. A. Acevedo Barroso, J. Wilde +192
The Early Release Observations (ERO) from Euclid have detected several new galaxy-galaxy strong gravitational lenses, with the all-sky survey expected to find 170,000 new systems,…
