Measuring the Hubble Constant Near and Far in the Era of ELT's
Rachael L. Beaton, Simon Birrer, Ian Dell'Antonio +7
Many of the fundamental physical constants in Physics, as a discipline, are measured to exquisite levels of precision. The fundamental constants that define Cosmology, however, are…
The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2016 follow-up campaign. I. Overview and classification of candidates selected by two techniques
T. Treu, A. Agnello, M. A. Baumer +79
The primary goals of the STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) collaboration are to measure the dark energy equation of state parameter and the free streami…
Lensing substructure quantification in RXJ1131-1231: A 2 keV lower bound on dark matter thermal relic mass
Simon Birrer, Adam Amara, Alexandre Refregier
We study the substructure content of the strong gravitational lens RXJ1131-1231 through a forward modelling approach that relies on generating an extensive suite of realistic simul…
Line-of-sight effects in strong lensing: Putting theory into practice
Simon Birrer, Cyril Welschen, Adam Amara +1
We present a simple method to accurately infer line of sight (LOS) integrated lensing effects for galaxy scale strong lens systems through image reconstruction. Our approach enable…
