TL;DR: In this article, a joint likelihood analysis of 15 massive field early-type galaxies selected from the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) Survey is presented, and the average position-angle difference between the light distribution and the total mass distribution is found to be = 0 degrees +/- 3 degrees (rms of 10 degrees).

TL;DR: The Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) survey as mentioned in this paper was designed to detect bright early-type lens galaxies with faint lensed sources in order to increase the sample of known gravitational lenses suitable for detailed lensing, photometric, and dynamical modeling.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a weak-lensing analysis of 22 early-type (strong) lens galaxies, based on deep HST images obtained as part of the Sloan Lens ACS Survey.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the results of the full sample of 131 strong gravitational lens candidates observed with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope by the Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS), all targets were selected for higher redshift emission lines and lower redshift continuum in a single SDSS spectrum.

TL;DR: In this paper, the average logarithmic density slope of massive elliptical galaxies with Meff 3 × 10 10 10 M is estimated by a power-law ellipsoid.
