The Potential of Exozodiacal Disks Observations with the WFIRST Coronagraph Instrument
B. Mennesson, V. Bailey, J. Kasdin +60
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) will be the first high-performance stellar coronagraph using active wavefront control for deep starli…
The Most Powerful Lenses in the Universe: Quasar Microlensing as a Probe of the Lensing Galaxy
David Pooley, Timo Anguita, Saloni Bhatiani +14
Optical and X-ray observations of strongly gravitationally lensed quasars (especially when four separate images of the quasar are produced) determine not only the amount of matter…
Astro2020 Science White Paper - Quasar Microlensing: Revolutionizing our Understanding of Quasar Structure and Dynamics
Leonidas Moustakas, Matthew O'Dowd, Timo Anguita +20
Microlensing by stars within distant galaxies acting as strong gravitational lenses of multiply-imaged quasars, provides a unique and direct measurement of the internal structure o…
An Ultra Deep Field survey with WFIRST
Anton M. Koekemoer, R. J. Foley, D. N. Spergel +69
Studying the formation and evolution of galaxies at the earliest cosmic times, and their role in reionization, requires the deepest imaging possible. Ultra-deep surveys like the HU…
