LENSVIEW: Software for modelling resolved gravitational lens images
We have developed a new software tool, LENSVIEW, for modelling resolved gravitational lens images. Based on the LENSMEM algorithm, the software finds the best fitting lens mass model and source brightness distribution using a maximum entropy constraint. The method can be used with any point spread function or lens model. We review the algorithm and introduce some significant improvements. We al...
متن کاملMULTIBOOST: A Multi-purpose Boosting Package
The MULTIBOOST package provides a fast C++ implementation of multi-class/multi-label/multitask boosting algorithms. It is based on ADABOOST.MH but it also implements popular cascade classifiers and FILTERBOOST. The package contains common multi-class base learners (stumps, trees, products, Haar filters). Further base learners and strong learners following the boosting paradigm can be easily imp...
متن کاملCosmological parameter determination in free-form strong gravitational lens modelling
We develop a novel statistical strong-lensing approach to probe the cosmological parameters by exploiting multiple redshift image systems behind galaxies or galaxy clusters. The method relies on free-form mass inversion of strong lenses and does not need any additional information other than gravitational lensing. Since in free-form lensing the solution space is a high-dimensional convex polyto...
متن کاملGravitational lens time delays and gravitational waves.
Using Fermat’s principle, we analyze the effects of very long wavelength gravitational waves upon the images of a gravitationally lensed quasar. We show that the lens equation in the presence of gravity waves is equivalent to that of a lens with different alignment between source, deflector, and observer in the absence of gravity waves. Contrary to a recent claim, we conclude that measurements ...
متن کاملGravitational Lens Mg
We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed radio source. Radio maps of MG 0751+2716 show four lensed images, which, at higher resolution, are resolved into long arcs of emission. A group of galaxies is present in optical images, including the principal lensing galaxy, with a much brighter galaxy just a few arcseconds away. We have measured the redshift of this brighter galaxy. No o...
