Gravitational Lensing in Astronomy [PDF]

Living Reviews in Relativity, 1998
Deflection of light by gravity was predicted by General Relativity and observationaly confirmed in 1919. In the following decades various aspects of the gravitational lens effect were explored theoretically, among them the possibility of multiple or ring-like images of background sources, the use of lensing as a gravitational telescope on very faint ...

Gravitational lensing [PDF]

Proceedings of 8th European VLBI Network Symposium — PoS(8thEVN), 2007
This is a short and biased review of gravitational lensing with emphasis on the radio and especially VLBI aspects. We briefly explain the basic idea and give a short sketch of the discovery of the first lens, before we more systematically discuss the ...

Gravitational lensing. [PDF]

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2013
Since Galileo, the arrays of lenses in telescopes have revolutionized the way we see planets, moons, and the universe. Now gravitational lenses made of warped spacetime are helping astronomers peer into the farthest corners of the cosmos.

Multi-messenger gravitational lensing. [PDF]

Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci
We introduce the rapidly emerging field of multi-messenger gravitational lensing—the discovery and science of gravitationally lensed phenomena in the distant universe through the combination of multiple messengers. This is framed by gravitational lensing phenomenology that has grown since the first discoveries in the twentieth century, messengers that ...

Gravitational lensing [PDF]

Astrophysics and Space Science, 2001
AbstractIn the roughly 20 years of its existence as an observational science, gravitational lensing has established itself as a valuable tool in many astrophysical fields. In the introduction of this review we briefly present the basics of lensing. Then it is shown that the two propagation effects, lensing and scintillation, have a number of properties

Inverting Gravitational Lenses [PDF]

SIAM Review, 2002
Summary: Gravitational lensing provides a powerful tool to study a number of fundamental questions in astrophysics. Fortuitously, one can begin to explore some nontrivial issues associated with this phenomenon without a lot of very sophisticated mathematics, making an elementary treatment of this topic tractable even to senior undergraduates. We give a

Exploring gravitational lensing [PDF]

European Journal of Physics, 2019
In this article, we discuss the idea of gravitational lensing, from a systematic, historical and didactic point of view. We show how the basic lensing equation together with the concepts of geometrical optics opens a space of implications that can be explored along different dimensions.
