Gravitational Lensing in Plasma [PDF]
We develop a model of gravitational lensing in plasma. We show that the gravitaional deflection angle by point mass in the homogeneous plasma differs from the vacuum deflection angle and depends on frequency of the photon. The dependence of the lensing angle on the photon frequency in the homogeneous plasma resembles the properties of a refractive ...

Exploring gravitational lensing [PDF]
Abstract 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.

Rotation in gravitational lenses [PDF]
Gravitational lensing deflects light. A single lens deflector can only shear images, but cannot induce rotations. Multiple lens planes can induce rotations. Such rotations can be observed in quadruply imaged sources, and can be used to distinguish between two proposed solutions of the flux anomaly problem: substructures in lensing galaxies vs large ...

Gravitational Lensing and Optical Geometry [PDF]
The year 2019 saw the centenary of Eddington's eclipse expeditions and the corroboration of Einstein's general relativity by gravitational lensing. To mark the occasion, a Special Issue of Universe has been dedicated to the theoretical aspects of strong ...

Toward an Optimal Reconstruction of the Shear Field with PDF-folding
Weak lensing provides a direct way of mapping the density distribution in the Universe. To reconstruct the density field from the shear catalog, an important step is to build the shear field from the shear catalog, which can be quite nontrivial due to ...

The intrinsic B-mode polarisation of the cosmic microwave background [PDF]
. We estimate the B-polarisation induced in the Cosmic Microwave Background by the non-linear evolution of density perturbations. Using the second-order Boltzmann code SONG, our analysis incorporates, for the first time, all physical effects at ...

The ‘Gravitational Lensing’ Bibliography [PDF]
We present a non-exhaustive bibliography on “Gravitational Lensing” (GL), totalizing nearly 1500 titles (see Pospieszalska-Surdej et al. 1993 for an earlier version of this bibliography). It also includes recent abstracts of papers dealing with gravitational lensing and submitted to astro-ph@babbage.sissa.it. The GL bibliography is accessible through a

Investigating gravitational lensing diffraction in the laboratory with structured light [PDF]
We use spatial light modulation to investigate the diffractive effects of gravitational lensing in the laboratory. Using this new platform for laboratory astrophysics, we can overcome the coherence challenges that prevent the observation of diffraction ...
