Euclid: Finding strong gravitational lenses in the Early Release Observations using convolutional neural networks
B. C. Nagam, J. A. Acevedo Barroso, J. Wilde +192
The Early Release Observations (ERO) from Euclid have detected several new galaxy-galaxy strong gravitational lenses, with the all-sky survey expected to find 170,000 new systems,…
Euclid: The Early Release Observations Lens Search Experiment
J. A. Acevedo Barroso, C. M. O'Riordan, B. Clément +206
We investigated the ability of the Euclid telescope to detect galaxy-scale gravitational lenses. To do so, we performed a systematic visual inspection of the Eucl…
Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry
Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412
Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…
Gaia GraL: Gaia DR2 Gravitational Lens Systems. VIII. A radio census of lensed systems
Dougal Dobie, Dominique Sluse, Adam Deller +26
We present radio observations of 24 confirmed and candidate strongly lensed quasars identified by the Gaia Gravitational Lenses (GraL) working group. We detect radio emission from…
Searching for strong gravitational lenses
Cameron Lemon, Frédéric Courbin, Anupreeta More +9
Strong gravitational lenses provide unique laboratories for cosmological and astrophysical investigations, but they must first be discovered - a task that can be met with significa…
Gaia Focused Product Release: A catalogue of sources around quasars to search for strongly lensed quasars
Gaia Collaboration, A. Krone-Martins, C. Ducourant +398
Context. Strongly lensed quasars are fundamental sources for cosmology. The Gaia space mission covers the entire sky with the unprecedented resolution of " in the optical, ma…
Shape, alignment, and mass distribution of baryonic and dark-matter halos in one EAGLE simulation
Q. Petit, C. Ducourant, E. Slezak +2
Accurate knowledge of the morphology of halos and its evolution are key constraints on the galaxy formation model as well as a determinant parameter of the strong-lensing phenomeno…
Gaia DR3: Apsis III -- Non-stellar content and source classification
L. Delchambre, C. A. L. Bailer-Jones, I. Bellas-Velidis +78
Context. As part of the third Gaia data release, we present the contributions of the non-stellar and classification modules from the eighth coordination unit (CU8) of the Data Proc…
Gaia Data Release 3: Astrophysical parameters inference system (Apsis) I -- methods and content overview
O. L. Creevey, R. Sordo, F. Pailler +86
Gaia Data Release 3 contains a wealth of new data products for the community. Astrophysical parameters are a major component of this release. They were produced by the Astrophysica…
Gaia Data Release 3: Analysis of RVS spectra using the General Stellar Parametriser from spectroscopy
A. Recio-Blanco, P. de Laverny, P. A. Palicio +77
The chemo-physical parametrisation of stellar spectra is essential for understanding the nature and evolution of stars and of Galactic stellar populations. Gaia DR3 contains the pa…
Gaia GraL: Gaia DR2 Gravitational Lens Systems. VII. XMM-Newton Observations of Lensed Quasars
Thomas Connor, Daniel Stern, Alberto Krone-Martins +23
We present XMM-Newton X-ray observations of nine confirmed lensed quasars at identified by the Gaia Gravitational Lens program. Eight systems are strongly…
