Summary: | A fundamental aspect of studying the universe is measuring its cosmological
parameters. Concurrently, a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of
galaxy mass and number density is important in studying the universe. In this
final project, we use lens redshift probability distribution analysis to constrain
the cosmological parameters and galaxy evolution using 171 strong gravitational
lensing systems. Furthermore, the sample is grouped into eight groups
based on ?E, source galaxy type, and morphological type of the lensing galaxy.
In this analysis, we assume a simple lens mass distribution that represents an
isolated lens system and it is performed on the ?CDM and wCDM universe
models. Both models are accompanied by variations of three galaxy evolution
states, namely non-evolving galaxies, power-law evolving galaxies, and exponentially
evolving galaxies. Furthermore, we performed further analysis using
data from the H0LiCOW research project to study isolated lens systems based
on velocity dispersion data. The analysis of the lens redshift probability
distribution reveals that, in general, the data used in this final project provide
cosmological parameter values that are consistent with the H0LiCOW study.
Meanwhile, the galaxy evolution parameter values obtained are quite consistent
with the references used. Based on these results, ?E is not very e?ective
for identifying isolated lens systems, but velocity dispersion can be used to
identify isolated lens systems after being corrected for ?text and ?ap. Future
improvements in the quality and quantity of gravitational lensing data are
expected to provide better constraints on cosmological parameters and galaxy
evolution.
