Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988 The gravitational lensing phenomenon is a new observational tool in cosmology. It appears to occur reasonably frequently; several thousand examples probably are observable with current radio and optical telescopes. A dozen or so reasonable candidates have been proposed, but it has become clear that one must apply strong tests to distinguish between ...

Using Convolutional Neural Networks to Search for Strongly Lensed Quasars in KiDS DR5
The Astrophysical JournalGravitationally strongly lensed quasars (SL-QSO) offer invaluable insights into cosmological and astrophysical phenomena. With the data from ongoing and next-generation surveys, thousands of SL-QSO systems can be discovered expectedly, leading to ...

Lectures on Gravitational Lensing [PDF]
, 1996 These lectures give an introduction to Gravitational Lensing. We discuss lensing by point masses, lensing by galaxies, and lensing by clusters and larger-scale structures in the Universe. The relevant theory is developed and applications to astrophysical

The Ties That Rhyme: Duality in Symbolic and Structural Networks of Grime Music
The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Do birds of a feather really sing together? Musicians face two competing pressures in the pursuit of success: conforming to genre norms to meet audience expectations and distinguishing themselves to attract the attention of listeners. These opposing logics may shape how artists choose their collaborators.

A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

It theorizes a novel attitudinal typology distinguishing polity‐specific attitudes influenced by national contexts and transnational attitudes forged by migratory experience. It applies the typology to four dimensions of political competition in contemporary Europe:
