HOLISMOKES XX. Lens models of binary lens galaxies with five images of Supernova Winny

L. R. Ecker, A. G. Schweinfurth, R. Saglia +13

Strongly lensed supernovae (SNe) provide a powerful way to study cosmology, SNe and galaxies. Modelling the lens system is key to extracting astrophysical and cosmological informat…

Kinematic lensing with high-resolution spectroscopic surveys. A unique opportunity for transformative cosmology at high redshifts in the 2040s

Stefano Camera, Martin Kilbinger, Jean-Paul Kneib +10

We present a science case to perform high-redshift cosmic shear surveys for cosmology with next-generation spectroscopic instruments, such as the proposed MegaMapper and Wide-field…

Spectroscopic Alerts for the Time-Domain Era

Alejandra Melo, Paula Sanchez-Saez, Valentin D. Ivanov +13

Time-domain astronomy is entering an era of unprecedented discovery driven by wide-field, high-cadence surveys such as LSST, Roman, Euclid, SKA, and PLATO. While some of these faci…

The Triple System V1371 Tau: An Eclipsing Binary with an Outer Be Star

Danilo F. Rocha, Marcelo Emilio, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +10

Although triple systems are common, their orbital dynamics and stellar evolution remain poorly understood. We investigated the V1371 Tau system using TESS photometry, multi-epoch s…

Does Machine Learning Work? A Comparative Analysis of Strong Gravitational Lens Searches in the Dark Energy Survey

J. Gonzalez, T. Collett, K. Rojas +9

We present a systematic comparison of three independent machine learning (ML)-based searches for strong gravitational lenses applied to the Dark Energy Survey (Jacobs et al. 2019a,…

HOLISMOKES XVI: Lens search in HSC-PDR3 with a neural network committee and post-processing for false-positive removal

S. Schuldt, R. Cañameras, Y. Shu +6

We have carried out a systematic search for galaxy-scale lenses exploiting multi-band imaging data from the third public data release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) survey with the…
