LensingETC: a tool to optimize multi-filter imaging campaigns of galaxy-scale strong lensing systems

Anowar J. Shajib, Karl Glazebrook, Tania Barone +7

Imaging data is the principal observable required to use galaxy-scale strong lensing in a multitude of applications in extragalactic astrophysics and cosmology. In this paper, we d…

A fully-spectroscopic triple-source-plane lens: the Jackpot completed

Russell J. Smith, Thomas E. Collett

We present a spectroscopic determination of the redshift of the second source in the Jackpot gravitational lens system J0946+1006, for which only a photometric estimate of $z_{\rm…

Localizing merging black holes with sub-arcsecond precision using gravitational-wave lensing

Otto A. Hannuksela, Thomas E. Collett, Mesut Çalışkan +1

The current gravitational-wave localization methods rely mainly on sources with electromagnetic counterparts. Unfortunately, a binary black hole does not emit light. Due to this, i…

A Triple Rollover: A third multiply-imaged source at z~6 behind the Jackpot gravitational lens

Thomas E. Collett, Russell J. Smith

UUsing a five-hour adaptive-optics-assisted observation with MUSE, we have identified a doubly-imaged Ly alpha source at redshift 5.975 behind the z=0.222 lens galaxy J0946+1006 ('…
