The goal of these programs is to build a legacy library of bright strong gravitational lenses that span galaxy to cluster-scale halos. Most AGEL Data, whether official packages (e.g. AGEL DR2) or an individual researcher's project, are publicly available via The AGEL Dataverse archive.
Updated target list with additional redshifts, and high resolution imaging
Compiled observations from 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.
Cross-matched with additional, archived HST SNAP program: 15867 (PI X. Huang)
All the images can be found in AGEL DR2.
Catalogue of 104 new redshifts
Combined with literature redshifts, DR1 presented 53 lens systems with both source and deflector redshifts, and 15 systems with either a source or deflector spectroscopic redshift.
Beyond The AGEL Dataverse and the official AGEL DRs, our team maintains a larger source catalog which include targets that have not been spectroscopically confirmed or that may have been ruled out as legitimate lenses. We have made all publicly available data easily accessible through the interface below.
