GALAXY-SCALE GRAVITATIONAL LENS CANDIDATES FROM THE HYPER SUPRIME-CAM IMAGING SURVEY AND THE GALAXY AND MASS ASSEMBLY SPECTROSCOPIC SURVEY

ABSTRACT We present a list of galaxy-scale lens candidates including a highly probable interacting galaxy-scale lens in the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) imaging survey. We combine HSC imaging with the blended-spectra catalog from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey to identify lens candidates, and...

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT We present a list of galaxy-scale lens candidates including a highly probable interacting galaxy-scale lens in the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) imaging survey. We combine HSC imaging with the blended-spectra catalog from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey to identify lens candidates, and use lens mass modeling to confirm the candidates. There are 45 matches between the HSC S14A_0b imaging data release and the GAMA catalog. We separate lens and lensed arcs using color information, and exclude those candidates with small image separations (
