Measuring Cosmological Parameters with the JVAS and CLASS Gravitational Lens Surveys

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the constraints on cosmological parameters, particularly the cosmology constant, derived from JVAS and combine them with constraints from optical gravitational lens surveys, ''direct'' measurements of $\Omega 0, $H 0, and the age of the universe, and constraints derived from CMB anisotropies.

2- and 3-D simulations of magnetocentrifugal disk-winds: Acceleration and stability

TL;DR: In this paper, the acceleration and propagation of the wind from the disk surface to arbitrarily large distances are modeled using a set of 2D axisymmetric simulations, and it is shown that the wind reverts quickly to its initial axisymetric state with no indication of rapid growth of instabilities leading to flow disruption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Class b0445+123

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-image gravitational lens system has been discovered as a result of the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey (CLASS), where radio observations with the VLA, MERLIN and the VLBA at increasingly higher resolutions all show two components with a flux density ratio of ~7:1 and a separation of 1.34
Journal ArticleDOI

A candidate gravitational lens in the Hubble Deep Field

TL;DR: In this paper, the discovery of HDF~J123652+621227, a candidate gravitational lens in the HDF, is reported, which may be multiply imaging several optical sources at different redshifts.

Gamma-ray Emission from Crushed Clouds in Supernova Remnants

TL;DR: In this article, the radio and gamma-ray emission observed from newly-found "GeV-bright" supernova remnants (SNRs) can be explained by a model, in which a shocked cloud and shock-accelerated cosmic rays (CRs) frozen in it are simultaneously compressed by the supernova blastwave as a result of formation of a radiative cloud shock.
