A SHARP view of H0LiCOW: H-0 from three time-delay gravitational lens systems with adaptive optics imaging

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan

We present the measurement of the Hubble constant, H-0, with three strong gravitational lens systems, We describe a blind analysis of both PG 1115+080 and 11E0435-1223 as well as an extension of our previous analysis of RXJ 1131-1231. For each lens, we com ...

Impact of the 3D source geometry on time-delay measurements of lensed type-Ia supernovae

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Elodie Marie Charlène Savary, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Olga Tihhonova, Hung-Hsu Chan

It has recently been proposed that gravitationally lensed type-Ia supernovae can provide microlensing-free time-delay measurements provided that the measurement is taken during the achromatic expansion phase of the explosion and that color light curves are ...

COSMOGRAIL XVIII. time delays of the quadruply lensed quasar WFI2033-4723

Malte Tewes, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Sun Hee Kim, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We present new measurements of the time delays of WFI2033-4723. The data sets used in this work include 14 years of data taken at the 1.2 m Leonhard Euler Swiss telescope, 13 years of data from the SMARTS 1.3 m telescope at Las Campanas Observatory and a s ...

Strongly lensed SNe Ia in the era of LSST: observing cadence for lens discoveries and time-delay measurements

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Hung-Hsu Chan

The upcoming Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will detect many strongly lensed Type Ia supernovae (LSNe Ia) for time-delay cosmography. This will provide an independent and direct way for measuring the Hubble constant H0, which is necessary to addres ...

Survey of gravitationally-lensed objects in HSC imaging (SuGOHI) III. Statistical strong lensing constraints on the stellar IMF of CMASS galaxies

Hung-Hsu Chan

Context. The determination of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) of massive galaxies is one of the open problems in cosmology. Strong gravitational lensing is one of the few methods that allow us to constrain the IMF outside of the Local Group. Aims. ...

The STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) 2016 follow-up campaign - I. Overview and classification of candidates selected by two techniques

Eduardo Sanchez, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Joo Yeon Kim, Craig Matthew Smith, Riccardo Agnello, Augusto Martins Lima, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Adriano Agnello

The primary goals of the STRong lensing Insights into the Dark Energy Survey (STRIDES) collaboration are to measure the dark energy equation of state parameter and the free streaming length of dark matter. To this aim, STRIDES is discovering strongly lense ...

Survey of Gravitationally Lensed Objects in HSC Imaging (SuGOHI). II. Environments and Line-of-Sight Structure of Strong Gravitational Lens Galaxies to z similar to 0.8

Hung-Hsu Chan

We investigate the local and line-of-sight (LOS) overdensities of strong gravitational lens galaxies using wide-area multiband imaging from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program. We present 41. new definite or probable lens candidates discovered i ...

COSMOGRAIL XVII. Time delays for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080

Malte Tewes, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Sun Hee Kim, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We present time-delay estimates for the quadruply imaged quasar PG 1115+080. Our results are based on almost daily observations for seven months at the ESO MPIA 2.2m telescope at La Silla Observatory, reaching a signal-to-noise ratio of about 1000 per quas ...

Constraining the microlensing effect on time delays with a new time-delay prediction model in H-0 measurements

Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

Time-delay strong lensing provides a unique way to directly measure the Hubble constant (H-0). The precision of the H-0 measurement depends on the uncertainties in the time-delay measurements, the mass distribution of the main deflector(s), and the mass di ...

Models of the strongly lensed quasar DES J0408-5354

Eduardo Sanchez, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Vivien François Bonvin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon, Adriano Agnello

We present detailed modelling of the recently discovered, quadruply lensed quasar J0408-5354, with the aim of interpreting its remarkable configuration: besides three quasar images (A, B, D) around the main deflector (G1), a fourth image (C) is significant ...

Discovery of the Lensed Quasar System DES J0408-5354

Eduardo Sanchez, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Adriano Agnello

We report the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation of the quad-like lensed quasar system DES J0408-5354 found in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1) data. This system was discovered during a search for DES Y1 strong lensing systems using a method ...
