Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). XLIII. The Strong Lensing Discovery Engine F -- Bright and low-redshift strong lenses

We present 72 additional galaxy-galaxy strong lenses that complement the sample discovered in the Euclid Quick Release 1 data (63.1, catalogue, caused us to miss several bright and low-redshift strong lenses. They add more than 10% of new strong-lens candidates compared to the previous search. In total, the catalogue i...

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). The metallicity of the intracluster light

Colour provides key information to constrain the stellar population of the intracluster light (ICL), the diffuse light within galaxy clusters. We derive radial colour profiles ($Y_\mathrm{E}-H_\mathrm{E}$, $J_\mathrm{E}-H_\mathrm{E}$, $I_\mathrm{E}-H_\mathrm{E}$) of the brightest central galaxy (BCG) and ICL for 168 ga...

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). The shape of cluster haloes revealed by intracluster light

Intracluster light (ICL) offers a luminous route for measuring the shapes and orientations of cluster haloes. We used Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1) images to quantify ICL shapes for 205 clusters at $0.1 \leq z \leq 0.8$ selected from the eROSITA All-Sky Survey and the Dark Energy Survey. We measured the ICL properties...

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). Exploring the complexity of quenching processes across time, environment, and mass through recently quenched galaxies

Recently quenched galaxies (RQGs) provide insights into galaxy quenching. We present a photometric and spectroscopic analysis of RQGs using the first Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). Using rest-frame UVJ colours, we classify star-forming (SFGs), quiescent (QGs), and recently quenched galaxies at 0.2<z<3.0, separating RQ...

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1): Disc breaks highlight the structural evolution of galaxies through time

Changes in the slope of the radial surface brightness profiles of disc galaxies, or disc breaks, encode valuable information about the processes driving disc formation and growth. Until now, due to the resolution and depth required, statistical studies of break types have been limited mostly to the local Universe. We a...

Euclid: Quick Data Release (Q1) -- Optical hotspots in powerful radio galaxies

The hotspots of powerful radio galaxies are the sites of high-energy particle acceleration, but radio observations give us limited information on the electron energy distributions that they generate, which affects our overall understanding of their physics and energetics. Optical synchrotron counterparts to radio galax...

Euclid preparation. CXI. 6× 2pt analysis of Euclid's spectroscopic and photometric data sets

In this paper we present cosmological parameter forecasts for the Euclid statistics, which include the galaxy clustering and weak lensing main probes together with previously neglected cross-covariance and cross-correlation signals between imaging-photometric and spectroscopic data. The aim is understanding the impact...

Euclid preparation. CXIII. Simulated galaxy catalogues for non-standard cosmological models

Stage-IV galaxy surveys will provide the opportunity to test cosmological models and the underlying theory of gravity with unparalleled precision. In this context, it is crucial for the Euclid mission to leverage its spectroscopic and photometric probes to systematically investigate and incorporate non-standard cosmolo...
