Abstract

We are surveying the region -87 < delta < -38.5 for multiple imaging at scales 1 < theta < 15 arsec. Candidate gravitational lenses were selected from an existing dataset of Australia Telescope Compact Array measurements of 2178 flat (4.80/8.64 GHz) spectrum PMN sources. Selection criteria were optimised using tests on simulated lens datasets.
