Microlensing variability in the gravitationally lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305 = the Einstein Cross. II. Energy profile of the accretion disk

A. Eigenbrod, F. Courbin, G. Meylan +4

We present the continuation of our long-term spectroscopic monitoring of the gravitationally lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305. We investigate the chromatic variations observed in the UV…

Microlensing to probe the quasar structure: spectrophotometry of Q2237+0305 and of J1131-1231

D. Sluse, A. Eigenbrod, F. Courbin +5

We present the main results of the first long-term spectrophotometric monitoring of the ``Einstein cross'' Q2237+0305 and of the single-epoch spectra of the lensed quasar J1131-123…

A sharp look at the gravitationally lensed quasar SDSS J0806+2006 with Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics

D. Sluse, F. Courbin, A. Eigenbrod +1

We present the first VLT near-IR observations of a gravitationally lensed quasar, using adaptive optics and laser guide star. These observations can be considered as a test bench f…

Microlensing variability in the gravitationally lensed quasar Q2237+0305 = the Einstein Cross

A. Eigenbrod, F. Courbin, D. Sluse +2

We present the results of the first long-term (2.2 years) spectroscopic monitoring of a gravitationally lensed quasar, namely the Einstein Cross Q2237+0305. We spatially deconvolve…

Deep optical spectroscopy of extended Lyman alpha emission around three radio-quiet z=4.5 quasars

F. Courbin, P. North, A. Eigenbrod +1

We report the first results of a spectroscopic search for Lyman alpha, envelopes around three z=4.5 radio-quiet quasars. Our observational strategy uses the FORS2 spectrograph atta…
