Exploring galaxy mass profiles in strongly lensed quasars with upcoming Roman Space Telescope observations [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
Strong gravitational lensing of quasars is a powerful tool for probing cosmological parameters, tracing galaxy evolution, and investigating the internal structure of quasars.

Finding Multiply Lensed and Binary Quasars in the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The time delay between multiple images of strongly lensed quasars is a powerful tool for measuring the Hubble constant ( H _0 ). To achieve H _0 measurements with higher precision and accuracy using the time delay, it is crucial to expand the sample of ...

Massive ionized outflows in quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The most luminous quasars in the Hamburg- ESO (HE) survey show, at a high prevalence, CIV λ1549 and [OIII]λλ4959,5007 emission line profiles with high-amplitude blueshifts which indicate outflows occurring over a wide range of spatial scales.

A Close-Separation Double Quasar Lensed by a Gas-rich Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2000
In the course of a Cycle 8 snapshot survey, we have discovered that the z=1.565 quasar HE 0512-3329 is a double with image separation 0.644", almost certainly due to gravitational lensing. The two components differ in brightness by only 0.4 magnitudes and a high signal-to-noise ground-based composite optical spectrum shows no trace of any stellar ...

THE QUASAR SDSS J1536+0441: AN UNUSUAL DOUBLE-PEAKED EMITTER [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
The quasar SDSS J153636.22+044127.0, exhibiting peculiar broad emission-line profiles with multiple components, was proposed as a candidate sub-parsec binary supermassive black hole system. More recently, imaging revealed two spatially distinct sources, leading some to suggest the system to be a quasar pair separated by ~5 kpc.

Revisiting X-Ray-bright Optically Normal Galaxies with the Chandra Source Catalog

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
X-ray bright optically normal galaxies (XBONGs) are galaxies with X-ray luminosities consistent with those of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) but no evidence of AGN optical emission lines.

The double quasar Q2138-431: detection of a lensing galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT This paper reviews the question of whether the wide separation double quasar Q2138-431 is a gravitational lens. From early work, the two quasar images are known to have almost identical spectra and redshifts, but no lensing galaxy has so far been detected.

Highly accreting quasars at high redshift [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The first results of a spectroscopic analysis for a sample of type I highly accreting quasars (L/LEdd ~ 1) at redshift z~2-3 observed with the OSIRIS spectrograph on the GTC 10.4 m ...
