Influence of turbulence on Lyman-alpha scattering
Vadim R. Munirov, Alexander A. Kaurov
We develop a Monte Carlo radiative transfer code to study the effect of turbulence with a finite correlation length on scattering of Lyman-alpha (Ly) photons propagating through…
Asymmetric Surface Brightness Structure of Caustic Crossing Arc in SDSS J1226+2152: A Case for Dark Matter Substructure
Liang Dai, Alexander A. Kaurov, Keren Sharon +6
We study the highly magnified arc SGAS J122651.3+215220 caused by a star-forming galaxy at crossing the lensing caustic cast by the galaxy cluster SDSS J1226+2152 ($z_l=…
Highly Magnified Stars in Lensing Clusters: New Evidence in a Galaxy Lensed by MACS J0416.1-2403
Alexander A. Kaurov, Liang Dai, Tejaswi Venumadhav +2
We examine a caustic-straddling arc at in the field of the galaxy cluster MACS J0416.1-2403 () using archival multiband HST images and show that its surface bri…
Observing galaxy mergers at the epoch of reionization
Evgenii A. Chaikin, Nadezda V. Tyulneva, Alexander A. Kaurov
The galaxies with photometric redshifts observed in a close angular proximity might be either projection coincidences, strongly lensed images of the same galaxy, or separate galaxi…
