18 Jan 2007 | | Abstract: | The discovery of a gravitational lens candidate is reported. The quasars SDSS J111611.73+411821.5 and SDSS J111610.68+411814.4 are recognized as two images of the same object, being strongly lensed by the closer galaxy SDSS J111611.03+411820.9. The source is located at a redshift of z~3, while the redshift of the lens galaxy is z~0.25. The separation of the images is large,~13 arcsec. Commonly used models of the mass distribution for the lens galaxy with values of the parameters in the expected range describe the positions and fluxes of the images. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701537 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
