The Sloan-Lens ACS Survey II: stellar populations and internal structure of early-type lens galaxies

Tommaso Treu, Leon Koopmans, Adam Bolton +2

We derive Fundamental Plane parameters of 15 early-type lens galaxies identified by the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) Survey. The size of the sample allows us to investigate for the first…

A Search for Radio Gravitational Lenses, Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Very Large Array

Edward R. Boyce, Judd D. Bowman, Adam S. Bolton +2

We report on a novel search for radio gravitational lenses. Using the Very Large Array, we imaged ten candidates with both dual redshifts in Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra and 1.…

A Gamma-Ray Burst Mission to Investigate the Properties of Dark Energy

D. Q. Lamb, G. R. Ricker, D. Lazzati +26

[Abridged] Very recently, relations between the peak energy of Gamma-Ray Burst burst spectra, the isotropic-equivalent energy of the burst, and the radiated energy of the burst hav…

SDSS J0246-0825: A New Gravitationally Lensed Quasar from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Naohisa Inada, Scott Burles, Michael D. Gregg +14

We report the discovery of a new two-image gravitationally lensed quasar, SDSS J024634.11-082536.2 (SDSS J0246-0825). This object was selected as a lensed quasar candidate from the…

Binary Quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Evidence for Excess Clustering on Small Scales

Joseph F. Hennawi, Michael A. Strauss, Masamune Oguri +16

We present a sample of 218 new quasar pairs with proper transverse separations R_prop < 1 Mpc/h over the redshift range 0.5 < z < 3.0, discovered from an extensive follow up campai…

Detection of the Baryon Acoustic Peak in the Large-Scale Correlation Function of SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies

D. J. Eisenstein, I. Zehavi, D. W. Hogg +45

We present the large-scale correlation function measured from a spectroscopic sample of 46,748 luminous red galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The survey region covers 0.7…
