The Gravitational Lens CFRS03.1077 [PDF]
An exquisite gravitational arc with a radius of 2.1" has been discovered around the z = 0.938 field elliptical galaxy CFRS03.1077 during HST observations of Canada-France Redshift Survey (CFRS) fields.

Gravitational lens time delays and gravitational waves [PDF]
Using Fermat's principle, we analyze the effects of very long wavelength gravitational waves upon the images of a gravitationally lensed quasar. We show that the lens equation in the presence of gravity waves is equivalent to that of a lens with different alignment between source, deflector, and observer in the absence of gravity waves.

Semilinear Gravitational Lens Inversion [PDF]
We describe a new method for analyzing gravitational lens images, for the case where the source light distribution is pixelized. The method is suitable for high resolution, high S/N data of a multiply-imaged extended source. For a given mass distribution, we show that the step of inverting the image to obtain the deconvolved pixelized source light ...

The 2dF Gravitational Lens Survey [PDF]
AbstractThe 2 degree Field (2dF) galaxy redshift survey will involve obtaining spectra of approximately 2.5 105 objects which have previously been identified as galaxy candidates on morphological grounds. Included in these spectra should be about ten gravitationally-lensed quasars, all with low-redshift galaxies as deflectors (as the more common lenses

Motional Fock states for quantum-enhanced amplitude and phase measurements with trapped ions
Quantum metrology allows surpassing the standard quantum limit, but methods relying on squeezing require to know the orientation of the squeezed quadrature with respect to the signal.

Fixed points of mapping of N-point gravitational lenses
In this paper, we study fixed points of N-point gravitational lenses. We use complex form of lens mapping to study fixed points. Complex form has an advantage over coordinate one because we can describe N-point gravitational lens by system of two equation ...

Degeneracy in exotic gravitational lensing [PDF]
We present three different theoretically foreseen, but unusual, astrophysical situations where the gravitational lens equation ends up being the same, thus producing a degeneracy problem.

Self-consistent gravitational lens reconstruction [PDF]
We present a new method for directly determining accurate, self-consistent cluster lens mass and shear maps in the strong lensing regime from the magnification bias of background galaxies. The method relies upon pixellisation of the surface mass density distribution which allows us to write down a simple, solvable set of equations.
