CONSTRAINING GALAXY SHAPES FROM MODELING THE FIRST PROBABLE TWO PLANE LENS B2114+022

    Abstract:

    We summarize the observed properties and lens modeling results of the unique JVAS system B2114+022. We argue that the observational and modeling results are most consistent with a two-plane lensing hypothesis, particularly for the widest separated and observationally similar radio components A and D. We point out the potential power of this system for constraining galactic mass models and hence deriving the relations between the light and mass distributions.
