Euclid: A complete Einstein ring in NGC 6505

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Javier Alejandro Acevedo Barroso

We report the discovery of a complete Einstein ring around the elliptical galaxy NGC 6505, at z = 0.042. This is the first strong gravitational lens discovered in Euclid and the first in an NGC object from any survey. The combination of the low redshift of ...

Radio halo detection in MWA data using deep neural networks and generative data augmentation

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Emma Elizabeth Tolley, Shreyam Parth Krishna, Ashutosh Kumar Mishra

Detecting diffuse radio emission, such as from haloes, in galaxy clusters is crucial for understanding large-scale structure formation in the universe. Traditional methods, which rely on X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) cluster pre-selection, introduce bia ...

Discovery of a Rare Group of Dwarf Galaxies in the Local Universe

Oliver Müller

We report the discovery of a rare isolated group of five dwarf galaxies located at z = 0.0086 (D = 36 Mpc). All member galaxies are star forming, blue, and gas rich, with g − r indices ranging from 0.2 to 0.6 mag, and two of them show signs of ongoing mutu ...

Spectral Templates Optimal for Selecting Galaxies at z > 8 with the JWST

Michaela Hirschmann

The selection of high-redshift galaxies often involves spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting to photometric data, an expectation for contamination levels, and measurement of sample completeness-all vetted through comparison to spectroscopic redshift m ...

Dark Energy Survey Year 3 results: Cosmological constraints from galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing using the MAGLIM lens sample

Jonathan Andrew Blazek

The cosmological information extracted from photometric surveys is most robust when multiple probes of the large scale structure of the Universe are used. Two of the most sensitive probes are the clustering of galaxies and the tangential shear of backgroun ...
