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

David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey

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 ...

A new step forward in realistic cluster lens mass modelling: analysis of Hubble Frontier Field Cluster Abell S1063 from joint lensing, X-ray, and galaxy kinematics data

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Benjamin Emmanuel Nicolas Beauchesne, Mathilde Jauzac, Johan Richard

We present a new method to simultaneously and self-consistently model the mass distribution of galaxy clusters that combines constraints from strong lensing features, X-ray emission, and galaxy kinematics measurements. We are able to successfully decompose ...

Beyond the ultradeep frontier fields and legacy observations (BUFFALO): a high-resolution strong plus weak-lensing view of Abell 370

David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac

The HST treasury programme BUFFALO provides extended wide-field imaging of the six Hubble Frontier Fields galaxy clusters. Here we present the combined strong and weak-lensing analysis of Abell 370, a massive cluster at z = 0.375. From the reconstructed to ...

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 ...

Data Downloaded via Parachute from a NASA Super-Pressure Balloon

David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey, Lun Li

In April 2023, the superBIT telescope was lifted to the Earth's stratosphere by a helium-filled super-pressure balloon to acquire astronomical imaging from above (99.5% of) the Earth's atmosphere. It was launched from New Zealand and then, for 40 days, cir ...

Molecular gas and star formation activity in luminous infrared galaxies in clusters at intermediate redshifts

Pascale Jablonka, Gianluca Castignani, Mathilde Jauzac, Damien Louis Alexandre Spérone-Longin

We investigate the role of dense megaparsec-scale environments in processing molecular gas of cluster galaxies as they fall into the cluster cores. We selected a sample of similar to 20 luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) belonging to intermediate-redshift ...

The distribution of dark matter and gas spanning 6 Mpc around the post-merger galaxy cluster MS0451-03

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Baptiste Philippe Klein, Richard Massey

Using the largestmosaic of Hubble Space Telescope images around a galaxy cluster, we map the distribution of darkmatter throughout an similar to 6 x 6 Mpc(2) area centred on the clusterMS 0451-03 (z = 0.54, M-200 = 1.65 x 10(15) M-circle dot). Our joint st ...

The Beyond Ultra-deep Frontier Fields and Legacy Observations (BUFFALO) is a 101 orbit + 101 parallel Cycle 25 Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury program taking data from 2018 to 2020. BUFFALO will expand existing coverage of the Hubble Frontier Fields ...

The core of the massive cluster merger MACS J0417.5-1154 as seen by VLT/MUSE

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Richard Harvey, Johannes Richard Cornelis Geerit Kruis, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

We present a multiwavelength analysis of the core of the massive galaxy cluster MACS J0417.5-1154 (z = 0.441). Our analysis takes advantage of Very Large Telescope/Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer observations which allowthe spectroscopic confirmation of ...
