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 ...

The impact of human expert visual inspection on the discovery of strong gravitational lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Hung-Hsu Chan, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Rémy Elie Joseph, Elodie Marie Charlène Savary, Yue Pan

We investigate the ability of human 'expert' classifiers to identify strong gravitational lens candidates in Dark Energy Survey like imaging. We recruited a total of 55 people that completed more than 25 per cent of the project. During the classification t ...

In situ detection of multitarget impurities on contact lens by electrochemical scanning probe

Fang Liu, Tzu-En Lin, Yingdi Zhu

Identifying multitarget impurities on contact lenses is challenging because traditional methods such as polymerase chain reaction cannot be used on the unknown target. Other sampling methods often require expensive antibodies or dyes. Therefore, this resea ...

Using wavelets to capture deviations from smoothness in galaxy-scale strong lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Austin Chandler Peel, Georgios Vernardos

Modeling the mass distribution of galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses is a task of increasing difficulty. The high-resolution and depth of imaging data now available render simple analytical forms ineffective at capturing lens structures spanning a la ...

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

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

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 ...

Sparse Lens Inversion Technique (SLIT): lens and source separability from linear inversion of the source reconstruction problem

Frédéric Courbin, Rémy Elie Joseph

Strong gravitational lensing offers a wealth of astrophysical information on the background source it affects, provided the lensed source can be reconstructed as if it was seen in the absence of lensing. In the present work, we illustrate how sparse optimi ...

AAM: An Assessment Metric of Axial Chromatic Aberration

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen

Knowledge of lens specifications is important to identify the best lens for a given capture scenario and application. Lens manufacturers provide many specifications in their data sheets, and multiple initiatives for testing and comparing different lenses c ...

Adamts18 deletion results in distinct developmental defects and provides a model for congenital disorders of lens, lung, and female reproductive tract development

Cathrin Brisken, Marian Caikovski, Alessandra Piersigilli, Dalya Ataca, Yakir Guri

The ADAMTS family comprises 19 secreted metalloproteinases that cleave extracellular matrix components and have diverse functions in numerous disease and physiological contexts. A number of them remain 'orphan' proteases, among them ADAMTS18, which has bee ...

Refraction limit of miniaturized optical systems: a ball-lens example

Hans Peter Herzig, Roland Andreas Bitterli, Toralf Scharf, Wilfried Noell, Myun Sik Kim

We study experimentally and theoretically the electromagnetic field in amplitude and phase behind ball-lenses across a wide range of diameters, ranging from a millimeter scale down to a micrometer. Based on the observation, we study the transition between ...
