    Measuring Microlensing Using Spectra of Multiply Lensed Quasars
    We report on a program of spectroscopic observations of gravitationally lensed QSOs with multiple images. We seek to establish whether microlensing is occurring...

    Microlensing analysis of 14.5-year light curves in SDSS J1004+4112: Quasar accretion disk size and intracluster stellar mass fraction
    Context. The gravitational lens system SDSS J1004+4112 was the first known example of a quasar lensed by a galaxy cluster. The interest in this system has been...

    Microlensing and Intrinsic Variability of the Broad Emission Lines of Lensed Quasars
    We study the broad emission lines in a sample of 11 gravitationally lensed quasars with at least two epochs of observation to identify intrinsic variability and...

    Microlensing of a Biconical Broad-Line Region
    The influence of microlensing on the profiles of emission lines generated in a biconical geometry is discussed. Microlensing amplification in this anisotropic...

    Microlensing of Quasar Broad Emission Lines: Constraints on Broad Line Region Size
    We measure the differential microlensing of the broad emission lines between 18 quasar image pairs in 16 gravitational lenses. We find that the broad emission...

    Microlensing of Quasar Ultraviolet Iron Emission
    We measure the differential microlensing of the UV Fe II and Fe III emission line blends between 14 quasar image pairs in 13 gravitational lenses. We find that...
