A Spectroscopic Survey of the Fields of 28 Strong Gravitational Lenses: The Group Catalog
Michelle L. Wilson, Ann I. Zabludoff, S. Mark Ammons +3
With a large, unique spectroscopic survey in the fields of 28 galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses, we identify groups of galaxies in the 26 adequately-sampled fields. Using a…
A Spectroscopic Survey of the Fields of 28 Strong Gravitational Lenses: Implications for
Michelle L. Wilson, Ann I. Zabludoff, Charles R. Keeton +4
Strong gravitational lensing provides an independent measurement of the Hubble parameter (). One remaining systematic is a bias from the additional mass due to a galaxy group…
Probing the Cool Interstellar and Circumgalactic Gas of Three Massive Lensing Galaxies at z=0.4-0.7
Fakhri S. Zahedy, Hsiao-Wen Chen, Michael Rauch +2
We present multi-sightline absorption spectroscopy of cool gas around three lensing galaxies at z=0.4-0.7. These lenses have half-light radii r_e=2.6-8 kpc and stellar masses of lo…
Testing formation mechanisms of the Milky Way's thick disc with RAVE
Michelle Wilson, Amina Helmi, H. L. Morrison +21
We study the eccentricity distribution of a thick disc sample of stars observed in the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) and compare it to that expected in four simulations of thic…
