Semi-Supervised Learning for Lensed Quasar Detection
David Sweeney, Alberto Krone-Martins, Daniel Stern +7
Lensed quasars are key to many areas of study in astronomy, offering a unique probe into the intermediate and far universe. However, finding lensed quasars has proved difficult des…
Gaia GraL X.: The GraL catalogue of gravitationally lensed quasars Matched with \textit{Gaia} data, redshifts, and time delays
C. Ducourant, R. Teixeira, P. H. Vale-Cunha +25
Determining the Hubble constant tension requires alternative strategies, and multiply imaged quasars, with their intermediate redshifts, can potentially be used in this regard. We…
QZO: A Catalog of 5 Million Quasars from the Zwicky Transient Facility
S. J. Nakoneczny, M. J. Graham, D. Stern +11
Machine learning methods are well established in the classification of quasars (QSOs). However, the advent of light curve observations adds a great amount of complexity to the prob…
Gaia GraL: Gaia gravitational lens systems IX. Using XGBoost to explore the Gaia Focused Product Release GravLens catalogue
Quentin Petit, Christine Ducourant, Eric Slezak +21
Aims. Quasar strong gravitational lenses are important tools for putting constraints on the dark matter distribution, dark energy contribution, and the Hubble-Lemaitre parameter. W…
