Exoplanet searches with gravitational microlensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Different regimes of gravitational lensing depend on lens masses and roughly correspond to angular distance between images. If a gravitational lens has a typical stellar mass, this regime is named microlensing because the typical angular distance between images is about microarcseconds in the case for sources and lenses at cosmological distances.

Gravitational Lensing and Microlensing

open access: yes, 2002
This book provides a comprehensive and self-contained exposition of gravitational lensing phenomena. It presents the up-to-date status of gravitational lensing and microlensing, covering the cosmological applications of the observed lensing by galaxies ...

Quasar Variability and Gravitational Microlensing

The Astrophysical Journal, 1997
In this Letter we examine the claim by Baganoff & Malkan that the timescale of brightness variations of quasars increases with decreasing optical wavelength, and that this effect can offset a time dilation effect at high redshift. They base their case on a thin accretion disk model that implies that timescales become shorter as the observed passband ...

Gravitational microlensing

2019
Chapter 3 presents the implementation of the computer model. Modelling techniques used by other researchers are discussed, as are alternative approaches considered for the implementation of this model. In order to simulate the evolving distribution of the lensing objects over time, the simulation was designed to run on high performance parallel ...

Exoplanet Searches with Gravitational Microlensing [PDF]

open access: possible, 2013
There are different methods for finding exoplanets such as radial spectral shifts, astrometrical measurements, transits, timing etc. Gravitational microlensing (including pixel-lensing) is among the most promising techniques with the potentiality of detecting Earth-like planets at distances about a few astronomical units from their host star.

Gravitational Microlensing: Machos and Quasars

1998
Gravitational microlensing deals with the deflection of light by stellar mass objects. The deflection angles are tiny (of the order of milliarcseconds or smaller), so that multiple images on this scale are not observable. However, lensing magnifies the affected sources as well, and since the lens and the source are moving relative to each other, this ...
