Peaks in weak lensing mass maps for cluster astrophysics and cosmology [PDF]
Proceedings of the Japan Academy. Series B, Physical and Biological SciencesClusters of galaxies can be identified from the peaks in weak lensing aperture mass maps constructed from weak lensing shear catalogs. Such purely gravitational cluster selection differs considerably from traditional cluster selection based on the ...

Weak gravitational lensing by voids [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999 We consider the prospects for detecting weak gravitational lensing by underdensities (voids) in the large-scale matter distribution. We derive the basic expressions for magnification and distortion by spherical voids. Clustering of the background sources and cosmic variance are the main factors which limit in principle the detection of lensing by voids.

Weak gravitational lensing of the CMB [PDF]
Physics Reports, 2006 Weak gravitational lensing has several important effects on the cosmic microwave background (CMB): it changes the CMB power spectra, induces non-Gaussianities, and generates a B-mode polarization signal that is an important source of confusion for the signal from primordial gravitational waves.

Baryons, neutrinos, feedback and weak gravitational lensing [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2015 (Abridged) The effect of baryonic feedback on the dark matter mass distribution is generally considered to be a nuisance to weak gravitational lensing. Measurements of cosmological parameters are affected as feedback alters the cosmic shear signal on angular scales smaller than a few arcminutes.

Weak Gravitational Lensing and Its Cosmological Applications [PDF]
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2008 Weak gravitational lensing is a unique probe of the dark side of the universe: It provides a direct way to map the distribution of dark matter around galaxies and clusters of galaxies as well as on cosmological scales. Furthermore, the measurement of the weak lensing–induced distortions of the shapes of distant galaxies is a potentially powerful probe

Current status of weak gravitational lensing
New Astronomy Reviews, 2002 Weak gravitational lensing of distant galaxies by foreground structures has proven to be a powerful tool to study the mass distribution in the universe. Nowadays, attention has shifted from clusters of galaxies to the statistical properties of the large scale structures and the halos of (field) galaxies. These applications have become feasible with the

Geometric Outlines of the Gravitational Lensing and Its Astronomic Applications
Universe, 2023 Gravitational lensing is a topic of great application value in the field of astronomy. The properties and research methods of gravitational lensing are closely related to the geometric and relativistic characteristics of the background universe.

Gravitational Lensing of Acoustic Charged Black Holes
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We study the gravitational lensing of acoustic charged black holes in strong and weak field limit approximations. For this purpose, we first numerically obtain the deflection limit coefficients and deflection angle in the strong field limit.
