Weak gravitational lensing in the standard cold dark matter model, using an algorithm for three-dimensional shear [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999
We investigate the effects of weak gravitational lensing in the standard Cold Dark Matter cosmology, using an algorithm which evaluates the shear in three dimensions. The algorithm has the advantage of variable softening for the particles, and our method allows the appropriate angular diameter distances to be applied to every evaluation location within

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

The impact of higher-order distortions on the precise measurement of weak gravitational lensing shear and flexion

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
In this paper, we investigate the impact of higher-order distortions on the precise measurement of weak gravitational lensing shear and flexion. We begin by defining generalized higher-order distortions and outlining methods for measuring them. Then, using several lens models, we examine how these distortions affect shear and flexion measurements.
