Estimate of the Accretion Disk Size in the Gravitationally Lensed Quasar HE 0435-1223 Using Microlensing Magnification Statistics

We present a measurement of the accretion disk size of the quadruple lensed quasar HE 0435-1223 from well-sampled 13-year COSMOGRAIL optical light curves. Using accurate time delays for the images A, B, C, and D, we modeled and removed the intrinsic quasar variability, and found microlensing events...
