The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2017/2018 follow-up campaign: Discovery of 10 lensed quasars and 10 quasar pairs

C. Lemon, M. W. Auger, R. McMahon +65

We report the results of the STRong lensing Insights from the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) follow-up campaign of the late 2017/early 2018 season. We obtained spectra of 65 lensed q…

TDCOSMO. I. An exploration of systematic uncertainties in the inference of from time-delay cosmography

M. Millon, A. Galan, F. Courbin +22

Time-delay cosmography of lensed quasars has achieved 2.4% precision on the measurement of the Hubble constant, . As part of an ongoing effort to uncover and control systemati…

The mass relations between supermassive black holes and their host galaxies at 1<z<2 with HST-WFC3

Xuheng Ding, John Silverman, Tommaso Treu +10

Correlations between the mass of a supermassive black hole and the properties of its host galaxy (e.g., total stellar mass (M*), luminosity (Lhost)) suggest an evolutionary connect…

Where do quasar hosts lie with respect to the size-mass relation of galaxies?

John D. Silverman, Tommaso Treu, Xuheng Ding +8

The evolution of the galaxy size - stellar mass (Mstellar) relation has been a puzzle for over a decade. High redshift galaxies are significantly more compact than galaxies observe…

STRIDES: a 3.9 per cent measurement of the Hubble constant from the strong lens system DES J0408-5354

A. J. Shajib, S. Birrer, T. Treu +88

We present a blind time-delay cosmographic analysis for the lens system DES J04085354. This system is extraordinary for the presence of two sets of multiple images at different…
