We present a high-resolution spectrum of the high redshift, lensed quasar Q1208+1101, obtained with the echellette spectrograph on the Multiple Mirror Telescope. We examine the new and published spectra and provide an updated list of…

We report the discovery of the new gravitational lens system HE~0230$-$2130, a QSO at redshift $z=2.162$ consisting of at least five distinct components. Three of these are clearly lensed images of the QSO, one is most likely the lensing…

This is a short and biased review of gravitational lensing with emphasis on the radio and especially VLBI aspects. We briefly explain the basic idea and give a short sketch of the discovery of the first lens, before we more systematically…

We report the discovery of a new gravitational lens system from the CLASS survey. Radio observations with the VLA, the WSRT and MERLIN show that the radio source B0850+054 is comprised of two compact components with identical spectra, a…

We have discovered strong gravitational lensing by the galaxy ESO325-G004, in images obtained with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope. The lens galaxy is a boxy group-dominant elliptical at z=0.0345, making this…

A gravitational lens model of the radio quasar B1422+231 is presented which can account for the image arrangement and approximately for the relative magnifications. The locations of the principal lensing mass and a more distant secondary…

We have measured a time delay of 25.3 +/- 2.0 d (1-sigma confidence) in the Einstein ring gravitational lens system PKS 1830-211 from an analysis of archival VLA and ATCA monitoring data observed between 1997 and 2004. A small portion of…

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…

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…

A single-screen model of the gravitational lens system 2016+112 is proposed, that explains recent Hubble Space Telescope} (HST) infrared (NICMOS-F160W) observations and new high-resolution European VLBI Network (EVN) 5-GHz radio…

We present new observations of the gravitational lens system CLASS B0128+437. HST observations detect a very faint, extended object in I-band with no emission from the lensed images visible; no detection at all is made in V-band. The lens…

We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed radio source. Radio maps of MG0751+2716 show four lensed images, which, at higher resolution, are resolved into long arcs of emission. A group of galaxies is present in optical images,…

We report the discovery of a new quadruply imaged quasar surrounded by an optical Einstein ring candidate. Spectra of the different components of 1RXS J113155.4-123155 reveal a source at z=0.658. Up to now, this object is the closest known…

Gravitational lensing is a powerful tool for quantifying the mass content and distribution in distant galaxies. By using milliarcsecond angular resolution observations of radio-loud gravitationally lensed sources it is also possible to…

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 report the discovery of a new double-image gravitational lens resulting from our search for lenses in the southern sky. Radio source PMN J2004-1349 is composed of two compact components separated by 1.13 arcseconds in VLA, MERLIN and…

We present a multi-wavelength study of the gravitational lens COSMOS J095930+023427 (z=0.89), together with the associated galaxy group located at $z\sim0.7$ along the line of sight and the lensed background galaxy. The source redshift is…

We present 4,110 strong gravitational lens candidates, 3,887 of which are new discoveries, selected from a sample of 5,837,154 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) observed with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). Candidates are…

MG 1131+0456 is a radio-selected gravitational lens, and is the first known Einstein ring. Discovered in 1988, the system consists of a bright radio source imaged into a ring and two compact, flat-spectrum components separated by 2.1…

The radio-loud quasar PMN J0134-0931 was discovered to have an unusual morphology during our search for gravitational lenses. In VLA and MERLIN images, there are 5 compact components with maximum separation 681 millarcseconds. All of these…
