The "Little Dark Dot": Evidence for Self-interacting Dark Matter in the Strong Lens SDSS J0946+1006?
Shubo Li, Ran Li, Kaihao Wang +13
Previous studies, based on precise modeling of a gravitationally lensing image, have identified what may be an extremely compact, dark perturber in the well-known lensing system SD…
The onset of bar formation in a massive galaxy at
Aristeidis Amvrosiadis, Samuel Lange, James Nightingale +13
We examine the morphological and kinematical properties of SPT-2147, a strongly lensed, massive, dusty, star-forming galaxy at . Combining data from JWST, HST, and ALMA,…
Unveiling Lens Light Complexity with A Novel Multi-Gaussian Expansion Approach for Strong Gravitational Lensing
Qiuhan He, James W. Nightingale, Aris Amvrosiadis +8
In a strong gravitational lensing system, the distorted light from a source is analysed to infer the properties of the lens. However, light emitted by the lens itself can contamina…
Beyond the bulge-halo conspiracy? Density profiles of Early-type galaxies from extended-source strong lensing
Amy Etherington, James W. Nightingale, Richard Massey +9
Observations suggest that the dark matter and stars in early-type galaxies `conspire' to produce a surprisingly simple distribution of total mass, , with $γ\appr…
On the gravitational lensing interpretation of three gravitational wave detections in the mass gap by LIGO and Virgo
Matteo Bianconi, Graham P. Smith, Matt Nicholl +7
We search for gravitational wave (GW) events from LIGO-Virgo's third run that may have been affected by gravitational lensing. Gravitational lensing delays the arrival of GWs, and…
Systematic errors induced by the elliptical power-law model in galaxy-galaxy strong lens modeling
Xiaoyue Cao, Ran Li, J. W. Nightingale +9
The elliptical power-law (EPL) model of the mass in a galaxy is widely used in strong gravitational lensing analyses. However, the distribution of mass in real galaxies is more com…
