We use the Atacama Large sub/Millimetre Array (ALMA) to efficiently observe spectral lines across Bands 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 at high-resolution (0.″5 – 0.″1) for 16 bright southern Herschel sources at 1.5 < z < 4.2. With only six and a half hou... Read More about A novel high-z submm galaxy efficient line survey in ALMA bands 3 through 8 - an ANGELS pilot.

The COSMOS-Web ring: In-depth characterization of an Einstein ring lensing system at z ∼ 2. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 687, Article A61. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202348095

Aims. We provide an in-depth analysis of the COSMOS-Web ring, an Einstein ring at z ≈ 2 that we serendipitously discovered during the data reduction of the COSMOS-Web survey and that could be the most distant lens discovered to date.

Methods. We e... Read More about The COSMOS-Web ring: In-depth characterization of an Einstein ring lensing system at z ∼ 2.

Unveiling lens light complexity with a novel multi-Gaussian expansion approach for strong gravitational lensing (2024)
Journal Article
He, Q., Nightingale, J. W., Amvrosiadis, A., Robertson, A., Cole, S., Frenk, C. S., Massey, R., Li, R., Cao, X., Lange, S. C., & França, J. P. C. (2024). Unveiling lens light complexity with a novel multi-Gaussian expansion approach for strong gravitational lensing. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 532(2), 2441-2462. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae1577

In a strong gravitational lensing system, the distorted light from a source is analysed to infer the properties of the lens. However, light emitted by the lens itself can contaminate the image of the source, introducing systematic errors in the analy...

Strong gravitational lensing’s ‘external shear’ is not shear (2024)
Journal Article
Etherington, A., Nightingale, J., Massey, R., Tam, S.-I., Cao, X., Niemiec, A., He, Q., Robertson, A., Li, R., Amvrosiadis, A., Cole, S., Diego, J., Frenk, C., Frye, B., Harvey, D., Jauzac, M., Koekemoer, A., Lagattuta, D., Lange, S., Limousin, M., …Steinhardt, C. (2024). Strong gravitational lensing’s ‘external shear’ is not shear. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 531(3), 3684-3697. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae1375

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 e... Read More about Strong gravitational lensing’s ‘external shear’ is not shear.
