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
ABSTRACT 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$x_\mathrm{ s} = \theta /r_\mathrm{ s}$ generalized higher-order distortions and outlining methods for measuring them. Then, using several lens models, we examine

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.
