Cosmological Constraints from Gravitational Lens Time Delays (2009)
Future large ensembles of time delay lenses have the potential to provide interesting cosmological constraints complementary to those of other methods. In a flat universe with constant w including a...

The cosmic dark ages are the mysterious epoch during which the pristine gas began to condense and ultimately form the first stars. Although these beginnings have long been a topic of theoretical...

(Brief Summary) What is the total radiative content of the Universe since the epoch of recombination? The extragalactic background light (EBL) spectrum captures the redshifted energy released from...
The Sloan Lens ACS Survey. VI: Discovery and analysis of a double Einstein ring (2008)
Gavazzi, Raphael, Treu, Tommaso, Koopmans, Leon, Bolton, Adam, Moustakas, Leonidas, Burles, Scott, ...
We report the discovery of two concentric Einstein rings around the gravitational lens SDSSJ0946+1006, as part of the Sloan Lens ACS Survey. The main lens is at redshift zl=0.222, while the inner...

We present Spitzer Space Telescope observations of the well-studied extremely red objects (EROs) HR10 and LBDS53W091 from 3.6 to 160 microns. These galaxies are the prototypes of the two primary...

We derive Fundamental Plane parameters of 15 early-type lens galaxies identified by the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) Survey. The size of the sample allows us to investigate for the first time the...
Stellar Populations and Galaxy Morphology at High Redshift (2000)
Bunker, Andrew, Spinrad, Hyron, Stern, Daniel, Thompson, Rodger, Moustakas, Leonidas, Davis, Marc, ...
In this article we investigate the morphology and stellar populations of high-redshift galaxies through multi-waveband HST imaging and ground-based spatially-resolved spectroscopy. We study the...
WOMBAT & FORECAST: Making Realistic Maps of the Microwave Sky (1999)
Jaffe, Andrew H., Gawiser, Eric, Finkbeiner, Douglas, Baker, Joanne C., Balbi, Amedeo, Davis, Marc, ...
The Wavelength-Oriented Microwave Background Analysis Team (WOMBAT) is constructing microwave maps which will be more realistic than previous simulations. Our foreground models represent a...
