[DSF2019] SGAS J1438 10.2 , the SIMBAD biblio

We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging and grism spectroscopy of a strongly lensed LIRG at z = 0.816, SGAS 143845.1+145407, and use the magnification boost of gravitational lensing to study the distribution of star formation throughout this galaxy. Based on the HST imaging data, we create a lens model for this system; we compute the mass distribution and magnification map of the z = 0.237 foreground lens. We find that the magnification of the lensed galaxy ranges between 2 and 10, with a total magnification (measured over all the images of the source) of µ = 11.8_–2.4^+4.6. We find that the total projected mass density within ∼34 kpc of the brightest cluster galaxy is 6.0_–0.7^+0.3×10¹²M_☉. Using the lens model we create a source reconstruction for SGAS 143845.1+145407, which, paired with a faint detection of Hα in the grism spectroscopy, allows us to finally comment directly on the distribution of star formation in a z ∼ 1 LIRG. We find widespread star formation across this galaxy, in agreement with the current understanding of these objects. However, we note a deficit of Hα emission in the nucleus of SGAS 143845.1+145407, likely due to dust extinction.
