Strong Gravitational Lensing and Microlensing of Supernovae. [PDF]
AbstractStrong gravitational lensing and microlensing of supernovae (SNe) are emerging as a new probe of cosmology and astrophysics in recent years. We provide an overview of this nascent research field, starting with a summary of the first discoveries of strongly lensed SNe. We describe the use of the time delays between multiple SN images as a way to

GRAVITATIONAL MICROLENSING IN THE LOCAL GROUP [PDF]
▪ Abstract The status of searches for gravitational microlensing events of the stars in our galaxy and in other galaxies of the Local Group, the interpretation of the results, some theory, and prospects for the future are reviewed. The searches have already unveiled ∼ 100 events, at least two of them caused by binaries, and have already proven to be ...

Higher order corrections in gravitational microlensing [PDF]
We show that, in cosmological microlensing, corrections of order $v/c \sim Δλ/λ$, to the deflection angle of light beams from a distant source are not negligible and that all microlensing quantities should be corrected up to this order independently of the cosmological model used.

Gravitational wave detection through microlensing? [PDF]
It is shown that accurate photometric observations of a relatively high--magnification microlensing event ($A\gg 1$), occurring close to the line of sight of a gravitational wave (GW) source, represented by a binary star, can allow the detection of subtle gravitational effects.

New Constraints on Quasar Broad Absorption and Emission Line Regions from Gravitational Microlensing
Gravitational microlensing is a powerful tool allowing one to probe the structure of quasars on sub-parsec scale. We report recent results, focusing on the broad absorption and emission line regions.

Gravitational microlensing and the galactic halo [PDF]
By means of extensive galactic modeling we study the implications of the more than eighty microlensing events that have now been observed for the composition of the dark halo of the Galaxy, as well as for other properties of the Galaxy. We take the Galaxy to be comprised of luminous and dark disk components, a bulge, and a dark halo consisting of both ...

Magnetic Manipulation of Superparamagnetic Colloids in Droplet‐Based Optical Devices
Colloidal particles inside droplets are assembled and manipulated using an external magnetic field to create magnetically controlled active microlenses and optical shutters. Using monodisperse microfluidic droplets, the assembly of particles into 2D clusters is systematically investigated and exploited to manipulate light.

Gravitational Microlensing [PDF]
AbstractGravitational microlensing is a well established and unique field of time-domain astrophysics. For two decades microlensing surveys have been regularly observing millions of stars to detect elusive events that follow a characteristic Paczyński lightcurve.
