Abstract

The gravitational lens effect occurs when the light is deflected in the presence of a gravitational field, generating multiple images or arcs. Microlensing happens when a compact object, in the lens galaxy halo, passes across a quasar lensed image. We analyzed two double systems: HE0047-1756 and SDSS1155+6346. We used spectra obtained with Magellan/IMACS (2007) and MMT/Blue-Channel (2008). The flux of emission line cores was separated from the continuum flux under them and integrated using DIPSO software. Comparing the magnitude differences in the emission line cores with the magnitude differences in the continuum under the lines (Motta et. al 2012), we found evidence of chromatic microlensing in HE0047-1756 and SDSS1155+6346. Emission line core fluxes are used to model the systems with lensmodel. SIS + γ are the best models in both cases, which are in agreement with literature. SDSS1155+6346 model shows a large shear, due to the presence of MaxBCG J178.81693+63.83446 cluster. We follow Mediavilla et al. 2011, modeling the accretion disk as a Gaussian intensity profile I(R) ∝ exp(-R^{2}/2r_{s}^{2}), with r_s(λ) ∝ λ^{p}, where r_{s} is the accretion disk size and p is the power law related to the temperature of the disk p = 1/β. We estimate the probability of r_{s} and p using the measured microlensing magnification with linear and logarithmic priors on r_{s}. We found within 1σ of uncertainty, sizes between 3 and 15 light days and temperature profiles values between 1 and 1.2. These values are in agreement with the literature and Shakura & Sunyaev (1973) prediction. We acknowledge to FONDECYT 1120741 and Centro de Astrofísica, Universidad de Valparaíso.
