JAXtronomy: A JAX port of lenstronomy

Alan Huang, Simon Birrer, Daniel Gilman +4

Gravitational lensing is a phenomenon where light bends around massive objects, resulting in distorted images seen by an observer. Studying gravitationally lensed systems provides…

AS-Bridge: A Bidirectional Generative Framework Bridging Next-Generation Astronomical Surveys

Dichang Zhang, Yixuan Shao, Simon Birrer +1

The upcoming decade of observational cosmology will be shaped by large sky surveys, such as the ground-based LSST at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and the space-based Euclid missio…

dolphin: A fully automated forward modeling pipeline powered by artificial intelligence for galaxy-scale strong lenses

Anowar J. Shajib, Nafis Sadik Nihal, Chin Yi Tan +4

Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful tool for probing the internal structure and evolution of galaxies, the nature of dark matter, and the expansion history of the Universe,…

Lens Modeling of STRIDES Strongly Lensed Quasars using Neural Posterior Estimation

Sydney Erickson, Sebastian Wagner-Carena, Phil Marshall +9

Strongly lensed quasars can be used to constrain cosmological parameters through time-delay cosmography. Models of the lens masses are a necessary component of this analysis. To en…

A forward-modelling approach to overcome PSF smearing and fit flexible models to the chemical structure of galaxies

Benjamin Metha, Simon Birrer, Tommaso Treu +3

Historically, metallicity profiles of galaxies have been modelled using a radially symmetric, two-parameter linear model, which reveals that most galaxies are more metal-rich in th…

NANCY: Next-generation All-sky Near-infrared Community surveY

Jiwon Jesse Han, Arjun Dey, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +206

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is capable of delivering an unprecedented all-sky, high-spatial resolution, multi-epoch infrared map to the astronomical community. This oppor…
