Gravitational Lensing: From μ-Lensing to Cosmic Shear Experiments

2005
These notes present the physics of gravitational lensing in various cosmological contexts. The equations and approximations that are commonly used to describe the displacement field or the amplification effects are presented. Several observational applications are discussed. They range from micro-lensing effects to cosmic shear detection that is a weak

Optimal cosmology from gravitational lensing: utilising the magnification and shear signals

2015
Gravitational lensing studies the distortions of a distant galaxy’s observed size, shape or flux due to the tidal bending of photons by matter between the source and observer. Such distortions can be used to infer knowledge on the mass distribution of the intervening matter, such as the dark matter halos in which clusters of individual galaxies may ...

Weak Lensing Shear Correlation with the O'Reilly Effect: Testing Informational Contributions to Strong Gravitational Lens Morphology in SDSS J1206+4332

This paper presents the first synthetic modeling test of the Relativity of Information and Geometric Principles (RIGP) framework applied to strong gravitational lensing. Using the well-characterized quad lens system SDSS J1206+4332, we superimpose an informational perturbation term Sμν onto a standard singular isothermal ellipsoid (SIE) plus external ...

Gravitational lensing from topological void curvature: geodesic tortuosity, cluster shear proles, and the toroidal annular ring prediction

We demonstrate that topological voids in Regge calculus produce quantitative gravita-tional lensing signals with a unique, falsifiable prediction: an annular convergence ring atthe toroidal void major radius (Rmaj ≈ 100 kpc) that no spherically symmetric dark mat-ter model can produce.
