Uncovering a population of gravitational lens galaxies with magnified standard candle SN Zwicky
Ariel Goobar, Joel Johansson, Steve Schulze +35
Detecting gravitationally lensed supernovae is among the biggest challenges in astronomy. It involves a combination of two very rare phenomena: catching the transient signal of a s…
Validating Synthetic Galaxy Catalogs for Dark Energy Science in the LSST Era
Eve Kovacs, Yao-Yuan Mao, Michel Aguena +36
Large simulation efforts are required to provide synthetic galaxy catalogs for ongoing and upcoming cosmology surveys. These extragalactic catalogs are being used for many diverse…
COSMOGRAIL XIX: Time delays in 18 strongly lensed quasars from 15 years of optical monitoring
M. Millon, F. Courbin, V. Bonvin +16
We present the results of 15 years of monitoring lensed quasars, which was conducted by the COSMOGRAIL programme at the Leonhard Euler 1.2m Swiss Telescope. The decade-long light c…
Dark matter dynamics in Abell 3827: new data consistent with standard Cold Dark Matter
Richard Massey, David Harvey, Jori Liesenborgs +23
We present integral field spectroscopy of galaxy cluster Abell 3827, using ALMA and VLT/MUSE. It reveals an unusual configuration of strong gravitational lensing in the cluster cor…
A test for skewed distributions of dark matter and a possible detection in galaxy cluster Abell 3827
Peter Taylor, Richard Massey, Mathilde Jauzac +4
Simulations of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) predict that dark matter should lag behind galaxies during a collision. If the interaction is mediated by a high-mass force carri…
