The Gravitational Lens CFRS03.1077 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2002
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.

CTQ 414: A New Gravitational Lens [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1999
We report the discovery and ground based observations of the new gravitational lens CTQ 414. The source quasar lies at a redshift of z = 1.29 with a B magnitude of 17.6.

Gravitational lens time delays and gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1994
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.

The 2dF Gravitational Lens Survey [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2001
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

The strong gravitational lens finding challenge [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2019
Large-scale imaging surveys will increase the number of galaxy-scale strong lensing candidates by maybe three orders of magnitudes beyond the number known today. Finding these rare objects will require picking them out of at least tens of millions of images, and deriving scientific results from them will require quantifying the efficiency and bias of ...

Global properties of gravitational lens maps in a Lorentzian manifold setting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In a general-relativistic spacetime (Lorentzian manifold), gravitational lensing can be characterized by a lens map, in analogy to the lens map of the quasi-Newtonian approximation formalism.

CORRELATION OF THE NUMBER OF IMAGES OF AN N-POINT GRAVITATIONAL LENS AND THE NUMBER OF SOLUTIONS OF ITS SYSTEM

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
In this paper, we study the correlation between the number of solutions of a system of lens equations and the number of source images that a gravitational lens has. We defined the concept of an image in a gravitational lens.

Motional Fock states for quantum-enhanced amplitude and phase measurements with trapped ions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
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

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2018
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 ...
