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). AgileLens: A scalable CNN-based pipeline for strong gravitational lens identification
Euclid Collaboration, X. Xu, R. Chen +308
We present an end-to-end, iterative pipeline for efficient identification of strong galaxy--galaxy lensing systems, applied to the Euclid Q1 imaging data. Starting from VIS catalog…
Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). The Strong Lensing Discovery Engine F -- Bright and low-redshift strong lenses
Euclid Collaboration, L. R. Ecker, M. Fabricius +346
We present 72 additional galaxy-galaxy strong lenses that complement the sample discovered in the Euclid Quick Release 1 data (63.1 deg^2) of the Strong Lens Discovery Engine (SLDE…
Euclid: The potential of slitless infrared spectroscopy: A z=5.4 quasar and new ultracool dwarfs
E. Bañados, V. Le Brun, S. Belladitta +226
We demonstrate the potential of Euclid's slitless spectroscopy to discover high-redshift (z>5) quasars and their main photometric contaminant, ultracool dwarfs. Sensitive infrared…
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 Quick Data Release (Q1) Ultracool dwarfs in the Euclid Deep Field North
A. Mohandasan, R. L. Smart, C. Reylé +176
Ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) encompass the lowest mass stars and brown dwarfs, defining the stellar substellar boundary. They have significant potential for advancing the understanding…
