" Gravitationally Lensed Quasars Observed with the Subaru Telescope "
Christian Rusu (Subaru)
I will give a brief description of the Subaru Telescope
adaptive optics campaign (Rusu et al. 2016) which resulted in
high-resolution imaging of 25 gravitationally lensed quasars. I will
present some of the interesting objects, as well as show results
concerning the SMBH-host galaxy coevolution and the relation between
the mass and light profiles of lensing galaxies. In the second half of
the talk, I will talk about the recent H0licow analysis which measured
the Hubble constant with 3.8% precision from a sample of just 3
lenses.
" The role of group or cluster environment in star formation quenching from z = 0.2 to 1.1 "
Hung-Yu Jian (ASIAA)
I will present some recent results using HSC wide data to study the star formation activity of galaxies down to i ~ 26 in different environments. We make use of the HSC CAMIRA cluster catalog and Mizuki photo-z galaxy catalog constructed in the HSC wide field (S16A) to explore the environmental impact on the star-formation quenching via the stacking technique over 0.2 ~ z ~ 1.1. From our results, we find that the environmental quenching persists to halt the star formation in the low-mass regime due to the existence of the red sequence for low stellar mass galaxies in groups and clusters. In addition, we also find that star-forming galaxies in dense regions are systematically biased toward lower values of specific star formation rate by 0.1 - 0.3 dex with respect to those in the field, and the offsets show no strong redshift evolution, implying a universal slow quenching mechanism acting in the dense environments since z ~ 1.1.
