Searching for Strong Gravitational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

Strong gravitational lenses provide unique laboratories for cosmological and astrophysical investigations, but they must first be discovered - a task that can be met with significant contamination by other astrophysical objects and asterisms. Here we revie ...

Euclid preparation XXXVII. Galaxy colour selections with Euclid and ground photometry for cluster weak-lensing analyses

Matthias Wiesmann, Georges Meylan, Frédéric Courbin, Fabio Finelli, Richard Massey, Maurizio Martinelli, Gianluca Castignani, Marcello Farina, Yi Wang

Aims. We derived galaxy colour selections from Euclid and ground-based photometry, aiming to accurately define background galaxy samples in cluster weak-lensing analyses. These selections have been implemented in the Euclid data analysis pipelines for gala ...

Deep learning approach for identification of H II regions during reionization in 21-cm observations - II. Foreground contamination

Michele Bianco, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Emma Elizabeth Tolley, Tianyue Chen

The upcoming Square Kilometre Array Observatory will produce images of neutral hydrogen distribution during the epoch of reionization by observing the corresponding 21-cm signal. However, the 21-cm signal will be subject to instrumental limitations such as ...

Hydrodynamical simulations of merging galaxy clusters: giant dark matter particle colliders, powered by gravity

Richard Massey, David Richard Harvey

Terrestrial particle accelerators collide charged particles, then watch the trajectory of outgoing debris - but they cannot manipulate dark matter. Fortunately, dark matter is the main component of galaxy clusters, which are continuously pulled together by ...

CURLING - I. The influence of point-like image approximation on the outcomes of cluster strong lens modelling

Nan Li, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

Cluster-scale strong lensing is a powerful tool for exploring the properties of dark matter and constraining cosmological models. However, due to the complex parameter space, pixelized strong lens modelling in galaxy clusters is computationally expensive, ...

Strong gravitational lensing's 'external shear' is not shear

Richard Massey, David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac

The distribution of mass in galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses is often modelled as an elliptical power-law plus 'external shear', which notionally accounts for neighbouring galaxies and cosmic shear along our line of sight. A small amount of externa ...

On the origin of globular clusters in a hierarchical universe

Michaela Hirschmann

We present an end-to-end description of the formation of globular clusters (GCs) combining a treatment for their formation and dynamical evolution within galaxy haloes with a state-of-the-art semi-analytic simulation of galaxy formation. Our approach allow ...

A compact approach to higher-resolution resonant inelastic x-ray scattering detection using photoelectrons

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Markus Scholz

The detection of inelastically scattered soft x-rays with high energy resolution usually requires large grating spectrometers. Recently, photoelectron spectrometry for analysis of x-rays (PAX) has been rediscovered for modern spectroscopy experiments at sy ...

Neutrino Signal from a Population of Seyfert Galaxies

Andrii Neronov

IceCube Collaboration has previously reported evidence for a neutrino signal from a Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068. This may suggest that all Seyfert galaxies emit neutrinos. To test this hypothesis, we identify the best candidate neutrino sources among nearby Se ...

Time-Delay Cosmography: Measuring the Hubble Constant and Other Cosmological Parameters with Strong Gravitational Lensing

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon

Multiply lensed images of a same source experience a relative time delay in the arrival of photons due to the path length difference and the different gravitational potentials the photons travel through. This effect can be used to measure absolute distance ...

CEERS: Diversity of Lyα Emitters during the Epoch of Reionization

Michaela Hirschmann

We analyze rest-frame ultraviolet to optical spectra of three z similar or equal to 7.47-7.75 galaxies whose Ly alpha emission lines were previously detected with Keck/MOSFIRE observations, using the JWST/NIRSpec observations from the Cosmic Evolution Earl ...

Heuristic Estimation of the Vacuum Energy Density of the Universe: Part II-Analysis Based on Frequency Domain Electromagnetic Radiation

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In Part I of this paper, an inequality satisfied by the vacuum energy density of the universe was derived using an indirect and heuristic procedure. The derivation is based on a proposed thought experiment, according to which an electron is accelerated to ...
