Constraints on the Hubble constant from supernova Refsdal's reappearance

Vivien François Bonvin, Mathilde Jauzac, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Anja Von der Linden

The gravitationally lensed supernova Refsdal appeared in multiple images produced through gravitational lensing by a massive foreground galaxy cluster. After the supernova appeared in 2014, lens models of the galaxy cluster predicted that an additional ima ...

The Magnificent Five Images of Supernova Refsdal: Time Delay and Magnification Measurements

Vivien François Bonvin, Mathilde Jauzac, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Anja Von der Linden

In late 2014, four images of Supernova (SN) "Refsdal," the first known example of a strongly lensed SN with multiple resolved images, were detected in the MACS J1149 galaxy-cluster field. Following the images' discovery, the SN was predicted to reappear wi ...

Time-delay Cosmography with Strongly Lensed Quasars

Martin Raoul Robert Millon

The LCDM model has emerged as the concordance model of cosmology for its ability to explain a variety of observations, ranging from the anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) to the accelerated expansion of the Universe. However, with the ev ...

Blue-shift ultrasensitivity using rhombus-shaped plasmonic crystal on Si3N4 membrane

Bahareh Ghadiani, Dordaneh Etezadi, Yasaman Jahani, Ershad Mohammadi, Foziyeh Sohrabi, Mahdi Tamizifar

Harnessing ultrasensitivity from optical structures to detect tiny changes in the targeted samples is the main goal of scientists in the field of sensor design. In this study, an uncommon rhombus-shape plasmonic structure is proposed for providing blue-shi ...

The Tucana dwarf spheroidal galaxy: not such a massive failure after all

Pascale Jablonka

Context. Isolated local group (LG) dwarf galaxies have evolved most or all of their life unaffected by interactions with the large LG spirals and therefore offer the opportunity to learn about the intrinsic characteristics of this class of objects. Aims. O ...

TDCOSMO: I. An exploration of systematic uncertainties in the inference of H-0 from time-delay cosmography

Frédéric Courbin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Adriano Agnello

Time-delay cosmography of lensed quasars has achieved 2.4% precision on the measurement of the Hubble constant, H0. As part of an ongoing effort to uncover and control systematic uncertainties, we investigate three potential sources: 1- stellar kinematics, ...

TDCOSMO. IV. Hierarchical time-delay cosmography - joint inference of the Hubble constant and galaxy density profiles

Frédéric Courbin, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Aymeric Alexandre Galan, Adriano Agnello

The H0LiCOWcollaboration inferred via strong gravitational lensing time delays a Hubble constant value of H0 = 73 :3+1:7 1:8 km s 1 Mpc 1, describing deflector mass density profiles by either a power-law or stars (constant mass-to-light ratio) plus standar ...

H0LiCOW-I. H-0 Lenses in COSMOGRAIL's Wellspring: program overview

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Vivien François Bonvin, Olga Tihhonova, Adriano Agnello

Strong gravitational lens systems with time delays between the multiple images allow measurements of time-delay distances, which are primarily sensitive to the Hubble constant that is key to probing dark energy, neutrino physics and the spatial curvature o ...

Planck intermediate results XXX. The angular power spectrum of polarized dust emission at intermediate and high Galactic latitudes

Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

The polarized thermal emission from diffuse Galactic dust is the main foreground present in measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at frequencies above 100 GHz. In this paper we exploit the uniqueness of the Planck HFI po ...

Carbon and nitrogen abundances of individual stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

We present [C/Fe] and [N/Fe] abundance ratios and CH(lambda 4300) and S(lambda 3883) index measurements for 94 red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy from VLT/VIMOS MOS observations at a resolving power R = 1150 at 4020 A. Thi ...
