Abstract

Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful tool for probing the mass content of the Universe. Both high-resolution imaging and spectroscopy observations are important for identifying and measuring the properties of the lensing object. The strong lensing system J1436+4943 was discovered in the SDSS-IV MaNGA survey and further observed with the FOCAS IFU spectrograph on the Subaru Telescope. We investigate whether comparable properties, e.g., the Einstein radius can be obtained using only MaNGA data cubes. The result shows that the general properties of the lens system can be recovered but the Einstein radius is different from the result with FOCAS IFU data by less than 25%. The MaNGA data cubes are helpful for fast analysis of large samples and to study the statistical properties of gravitational lensing systems.
