Serendipitous discovery of a strong-lensed galaxy in integral field
  spectroscopy from MUSE
  2MASX J04035024-0239275 is a bright red elliptical galaxy at redshift 0.0661
that presents two extended sources at 2\arcsec~to the north-east and
1\arcsec~to the south-west. The sizes and surface brightnesses of the two blue
sources are consistent with a gravitationally-lensed background galaxy. In this
paper we present MUSE observations of this galaxy from the All-weather MUse
Supernova Integral-field Nearby Galaxies (AMUSING) survey, and report the
discovery of a background lensed galaxy at redshift 0.1915, together with other
15 background galaxies at redshifts ranging from 0.09 to 0.9, that are not
multiply imaged. We have extracted aperture spectra of the lens and all the
sources and fit the stellar continuum with STARLIGHT to estimate their stellar
and emission line properties. A trace of past merger and active nucleus
activity is found in the lensing galaxy, while the background lensed galaxy is
found to be star-forming. Modeling the lensing potential with a singular
isothermal ellipsoid, we find an Einstein radius of 1\farcs45$\pm$0\farcs04,
which corresponds to 1.9 kpc at the redshift of the lens and it is much smaller
than its effective radius ($r_{\rm eff}\sim$ 9\arcsec). Comparing the Einstein
mass and the STARLIGHT stellar mass within the same aperture yields a dark
matter fraction of $18 \% \pm 8$ \% within the Einstein radius. The advent of
large surveys such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will discover
a number of strong-lensed systems, and here we demonstrate how wide-field
integral field spectroscopy offers an excellent approach to study them and to
precisely model lensing effects.
