TDCOSMO XIV: Practical Techniques for Estimating External Convergence of Strong Gravitational Lens Systems and Applications to the SDSS J0924+0219 System

Patrick Wells, Christopher D. Fassnacht, C. E. Rusu

Time-delay cosmography uses strong gravitational lensing of a time-variable source to infer the Hubble Constant. The measurement is independent from both traditional distance ladde…

A Highly Magnified Gravitationally Lensed Red QSO at z = 2.5 with a Significant Flux Ratio Anomaly

Eilat Glikman, Cristian E. Rusu, Geoff C. -F. Chen +12

We present the discovery of a gravitationally lensed dust-reddened QSO at z = 2.517, identified in a survey for QSOs by infrared selection. Hubble Space Telescope imaging reveals a…

TDCOSMO. IX. Systematic comparison between lens modelling software programs: time delay prediction for WGD 2038-4008

A. J. Shajib, K. C. Wong, S. Birrer +15

The importance of alternative methods for measuring the Hubble constant, such as time-delay cosmography, is highlighted by the recent Hubble tension. It is paramount to thoroughly…

Strongly lensed candidates from the HSC transient survey

Dani C. -Y. Chao, James H. -H. Chan, Sherry H. Suyu +5

We present a lensed quasar search based on the variability of lens systems in the HSC transient survey. Starting from 101,353 variable objects with i-band photometry in the HSC tra…

Spin Parity of Spiral Galaxies II: A catalogue of 80k spiral galaxies using big data from the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey and deep learning

Ken-ichi Tadaki, Masanori Iye, Hideya Fukumoto +4

We report an automated morphological classification of galaxies into S-wise spirals, Z-wise spirals, and non-spirals using big image data taken from Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC)…
