Paper: astro-ph/0312427 From: Masamune Oguri oguri@utap.phys.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp Title: A Gravitationally Lensed Quasar with Quadruple Images Separated by 14.62 Arcseconds Journal-ref: Nature 426 (2003) 810-812
[...] Here we report the discovery of a lensed quasar, SDSS J1004+14112, which has a maximum separation between the components of 14.62 arcsec. Such a large separation means that the lensing object must be dominated by dark matter. Our results are fully consistent with theoretical expectations based on the cold-dark-matter model.
