"Gravitational lensing reveals cool gas within 10-20 kpc around a quiescent galaxy"
Barone, Kacprzak, Nielsen, Glazebrook, Tran et al.
Nature Communications Physics, 2024
As part of the survey we have obtained two large HST imaging programs: a completed SNAP (ID: 16773, PI: Glazebrook, cycles 29-30) awarded 150 orbits with WFC3 and an ongoing GAP program (ID: 17307, PI: Tran, cycles 30-35) awarded 500 orbits with ACS. Additionally, many AGEL lenses were imaged in program 15867 (PI X. Huang).
The goal of these programs is to build a legacy library of bright strong gravitational lenses that span galaxy to cluster-scale halos.
