A gravitational lens model is presented for the newly discovered 10-image system B1933+503. The underlying object, revealed by modeling, is a triple radio source on the scale of a couple of hundred mas that is well-aligned along the line of…

We report the first detection of the gravitationally lensed quasar Q2237+0305 in X-rays. With a ROSAT/HRI exposure of 53 ksec taken in Nov./Dec. 1997, we found a count rate of 0.006 counts per second for the combined four images. This…

Here we report the discovery with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope of an extremely large ($\sim$115 kpc in diameter) HI ring off-centered from a massive quenched galaxy, AGC 203001. This ring does not have any bright extended optical…

We report the discovery of the most complex arcsec-scale radio gravitational lens system yet known. B1933+503 was found during the course of the CLASS survey and MERLIN and VLA radio maps reveal up to 10 components. Four of these are…

We report the discovery of a new two-image gravitational lens system from the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey, CLASS B2319+051. Radio imaging with the Very Large Array (VLA) and Multi-Element Radio-Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) shows…

The V=16.9 quasar FBQ 0951+2635 at redshift z=1.24 appears double on CCD exposures taken in subarcsecond seeing. The two objects are separated by 1.1" and differ in brightness by 0.9 mag. VLA observations show the radio source to be double…

The unprecedented sensitivity of the Infrared Spectrograph on the Spitzer Space Telescope allows for the first time the measurement of mid-infrared spectra from 14 to 38 microns of faint high-z galaxies. This unique capability is…

We present deep spectroscopic measurements of 18 distant field galaxies identified as gravitationally-lensed arcs in a Hubble Space Telescope image of the cluster Abell 2218. Redshifts of these objects were predicted by Kneib et al. (1996)…

We report the discovery of a z=2.76 radio galaxy, MG1019+0535, with an unusual spectrum. Ly$\alpha$, which usually dominates the spectra of high redshift radio galaxies, is very weak and the strongest lines in the spectrum are…

New high quality Keck and ESO images of PKS 1830-211 are presented. Applying a powerful new deconvolution algorithm to these optical and infrared data, both images of the flat spectrum core of the radio source have been identified. An…

We spectroscopically confirm the $M_{\rm UV} = -20.5$ mag galaxy GHZ2/GLASS-z12 to be at redshift $z=12.34$. The source was selected via NIRCam photometry in GLASS-JWST ERS data, providing the first evidence of a surprising abundance of…

We present a spectroscopic redshift measurement of a very bright Lyman break galaxy at z=7.7302+-0.0006 using Keck/MOSFIRE. The source was pre-selected photometrically in the EGS field as a robust z~8 candidate with H=25.0 mag based on…

We present a detailed mm-wave and optical study of the gravitational lens system B1933+503, discovered by Sykes et al.(1998) in the radio. This object is probably the most complex lens system known, with 10 lensed components within a radius…

We present the discovery and preliminary characterization of a gravitationally lensed quasar with a source redshift $z_{s}=2.74$ and image separation of $2.9"$ lensed by a foreground $z_{l}=0.40$ elliptical galaxy. Since the images of…

We have identified three multiply imaged galaxies in Hubble Space Telescope images of the redshift z=0.68 cluster responsible for the large-separation quadruply lensed quasar, SDSS J1004+4112. Spectroscopic redshifts have been secured for…

We show that the Einstein ring radius and transverse speed of a lens projected on the source plane, $\hat{r}_{\rm e}$ and $\hat{v}$, can be determined from the light curve of a binary-source event, followed by the spectroscopic…

We report the discovery of a new gravitational lens candidate Q2138-431AB, comprising two quasar images at a redshift of 1.641 separated by 4.5 arcsecs. The spectra of the two images are very similar, and the redshifts agree to better than…
