DeepZipper. II. Searching for Lensed Supernovae in Dark Energy Survey Data with Deep Learning
Gravitationally lensed supernovae (LSNe) are important probes of cosmic expansion, but they remain rare and difficult to find. Current cosmic surveys likely contain 5–10 LSNe in total while next-generation experiments are expected to contain several ...

Strong gravitational lensing of a 4-dimensional Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet black hole in homogeneous plasma [PDF]
We investigate the strong gravitational lensing of spherically symmetric black holes in the novel Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet (EGB) gravity surrounded by unmagnetized plasma medium.

In the present paper, strong deflection gravitational lensing is studied in a conformal gravity black hole. With the help of geometric optics limits, we have formulated the light cone conditions for the photons coupled to the Weyl tensor in a conformal ...

Joint constraints on thermal relic dark matter from strong gravitational lensing, the Ly α forest, and Milky Way satellites [PDF]
We derive joint constraints on the warm dark matter (WDM) half-mode scale by combining the analyses of a selection of astrophysical probes: strong gravitational lensing with extended sources, the Ly α forest, and the number of luminous satellites in ...

Domain Adaptation for Simulation-based Dark Matter Searches with Strong Gravitational Lensing
The identity of dark matter has remained surprisingly elusive. While terrestrial experiments may be able to nail down a model, an alternative method is to identify dark matter based on astrophysical or cosmological signatures.

Parameters estimation and strong gravitational lensing of nonsingular Kerr-Sen black holes [PDF]
The recent time witnessed a surge of interest in strong gravitational lensing by black holes is due to the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) results, which suggest comparing the black hole lensing in both general relativity and heterotic string theory.

What does strong gravitational lensing? The mass and redshift distribution of high-magnification lenses [PDF]
Many distant objects can only be detected, or become more scientifically valuable, if they have been highly magnified by strong gravitational lensing.

Detecting strong gravitational lensing of gravitational waves with TianQin
When gravitational waves (GWs) pass by a massive object on its way to Earth, a strong gravitational lensing effect will happen. Thus, the GW signal will be amplified, deflected, and delayed in time. Through analyzing the lensed GW waveform, physical properties of the lens can be inferred. On the other hand, neglecting lensing effects in the analysis of

Abstract Racism, as a covert but pervasive presence in teacher education in England, remains a major structural issue and its effects on student teachers who are Black and Asian are real and troubling. Their personal stories reveal multiple challenges and present empirical evidence that can usefully be analysed to examine their experience of daily ...

Hierarchical Inference with Bayesian Neural Networks: An Application to Strong Gravitational Lensing [PDF]
In the past few years, approximate Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) have demonstrated the ability to produce statistically consistent posteriors on a wide range of inference problems at unprecedented speed and scale.
