Study of Errors in Strong Gravitational Lensing [PDF]
We examine the accuracy of strong gravitational lensing determinations of the mass of galaxy clusters by comparing the conventional approach with the numerical integration of the fully relativistic null geodesic equations in the case of weak gravitational perturbations on Robertson-Walker metrics.

Measurements of the Hubble constant and cosmic curvature with quasars: ultracompact radio structure and strong gravitational lensing [PDF]
Although the Hubble constant H0 and spatial curvature ΩK have been measured with very high precision, they still suffer from some tensions. In this paper, we propose an improved method to combine the observations of ultracompact structure in radio ...

Precision Modeling of JWST's First Cluster Lens SMACS J0723.3–7327
Exploiting the fundamentally achromatic nature of gravitational lensing, we present a lens model for the massive galaxy cluster SMACS J0723.3−7323 (SMACS J0723; z = 0.388) that significantly improves upon earlier work.

In this work, we adopt a cosmological model-independent approach for the first time to test the question of whether the mass density power-law index ( γ ) of strong gravitational lensing systems (SGLSs) evolves with redshift, and the joint light-curve ...

Phase effects from strong gravitational lensing of gravitational waves [PDF]
Assessing the probability that two or more gravitational wave (GW) events are lensed images of the same source requires an understanding of the properties of the lensed images.

Two Lensed Star Candidates at z ≃ 4.8 behind the Galaxy Cluster MACS J0647.7+7015
We report the discovery of two extremely magnified lensed star candidates behind the galaxy cluster MACS J0647.7+015 using recent multiband James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRCam observations. The star candidates are seen in a previously known, z _phot

Resolving the discrepancy between X-ray and gravitational lensing mass measurements for clusters of galaxies [PDF]
We present a detailed comparison of mass measurements for clusters of galaxies using ASCA and ROSAT X-ray data and constraints from strong and weak gravitational lensing.

Strong gravitational lensing by a strongly naked null singularity [PDF]
We study strong gravitational lensing in a static, spherically symmetric, naked singularity spacetime, without a photon sphere. The nature of the singularity is found to be lightlike.

The Strongest Cluster Lenses: An Analysis of the Relation Between Strong Gravitational Lensing Strength and the Physical Properties of Galaxy Clusters [PDF]
Strong gravitational lensing provides unique opportunities to investigate the mass distribution at the cores of galaxy clusters and to study high redshift galaxies. Using $94$ strong lensing models of $74$ cluster fields from the \textit{Hubble} Frontier Fields (HFF), Reionization Lensing Cluster Survey (RELICS), and Sloan Giant Arcs Survey (SGAS ...
