Constraining quasar structure using high-frequency microlensing variations and continuum reverberation

Frédéric Courbin, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Hung-Hsu Chan, Vivien François Bonvin, Georgios Vernardos, Martin Raoul Robert Millon

Gravitational microlensing is a powerful tool for probing the inner structure of strongly lensed quasars and for constraining parameters of the stellar mass function of lens galaxies. This is achieved by analysing microlensing light curves between the mult ...

Microlensing Analysis for the Gravitational Lens Systems SDSS0924+0219, Q1355-2257, and SDSS1029+2623

Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate

We use spectroscopic observations of the gravitationally lensed systems SDSS0924+0219(BC), Q1355-2257(AB), and SDSS1029+2623(BC) to analyze microlensing and dust extinction in the observed components. We detect chromatic microlensing effects in the continu ...

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

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

COSMOGRAIL: the COSmological MOnitoring of GRAvItational Lenses XI. Techniques for time delay measurement in presence of microlensing

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes

Measuring time delays between the multiple images of gravitationally lensed quasars is now recognized as a competitive way to constrain the cosmological parameters, and it is complementary with other cosmological probes. This requires long and well sampled ...

Microlensing of the broad line region in 17 lensed quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan

When an image of a strongly lensed quasar is microlensed, the different components of its spectrum are expected to be differentially magnified owing to the different sizes of the corresponding emitting region. Chromatic changes are expected to be observed ...

Further Evidence That Quasar X-Ray Emitting Regions Are Compact: X-Ray And Optical Microlensing In The Lensed Quasar Q J0158-4325

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes

We present four new seasons of optical monitoring data and six epochs of X-ray photometry for the doubly imaged lensed quasar Q J0158-4325. The high-amplitude, short-period microlensing variability for which this system is known has historically precluded ...

Zooming into the broad line region of the gravitationally lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305 equivalent to the Einstein Cross III. Determination of the size and structure of the C-IV and C-III] emitting regions using microlensing

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Alexander Patrick Eigenbrod, Rudiger Schmidt

Aims. We aim to use microlensing taking place in the lensed quasar QSO 2237+0305 to study the structure of the broad line region (BLR) and measure the size of the region emitting the C-IV and C-III] lines. ...
