LBQS 1429-0053: a binary quasar rather than a lensed quasar
Very deep ESO/VLT FORS1 and ISAAC images, as well as HST NICMOS2 data are used to infer the nature of the quasar pair LBQS 1429-0053 A and B, either a binary quasar or a doubly-imaged lensed quasar. Direct search of a putative lensing galaxy is unsuccessful down to R=27, J=24, Ks=22.5 and H=22.5. Moreover, no galaxy overdensity close to the quasar pair is found. A weak shear analysis of the FOR...
متن کاملLBQS 0103 − 2753 : A 0 . 3 Arcsec Binary Quasar
Imaging and spectroscopy with HST show that LBQS 0103−2753 (V = 17.8, z = 0.848) is a binary quasar with a separation of 0 .3 or 2.3 kpc. This is by far the smallest separation binary quasar reported to date. The two components have very different spectra, including the presence of strong broad absorption lines (BALs) in component A only. The emission-line redshifts, based on the broad high ion...
متن کاملA Gravitationally Lensed Type – II Quasar
A single-screen model of the gravitational lens system 2016+112 is proposed, that explains recent Hubble Space Telescope (HST) infrared (NICMOS–F160W) observations and new high-resolution European VLBI Network (EVN) 5–GHz radio observations, presented in this paper. In particular, we find that a massive 'dark' structure at the lens position, previously suggested by X-ray, optical and spectrosco...

متن کاملDiscovery of the lensed quasar system DES
We report the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation of the quad-like lensed quasar system DES J0408-5354 found in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) Year 1 (Y1) data. This system was discovered during a search for DES Y1 strong lensing systems using a method that identified candidates as red galaxies with multiple blue neighbors. DES J0408-5354 consists of a central red galaxy surrounded by three ...
