Weak gravitational lensing with DEIMOS [PDF]
We introduce a novel method for weak-lensing measurements, which is based on a mathematically exact deconvolution of the moments of the apparent brightness distribution of galaxies from the telescope's PSF.

Weak Gravitational Lensing by Voids [PDF]
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

Weak Gravitational Lensing by Dark Clusters [PDF]
We calculate the abundance of dark-matter concentrations that are sufficiently overdense to produce a detectable weak-gravitational-lensing signal. Most of these overdensities are virialized halos containing identifiable X-ray and/or optical clusters ...

Weak gravitational lensing of the CMB [PDF]
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.

Weak gravitational lensing by stringy black holes [PDF]
In this paper, we discuss the weak gravitational lensing in the context of stringy black holes. Initially, we examine the deflection angle of photon by charged stringy black hole.

Baryons, neutrinos, feedback and weak gravitational lensing [PDF]
(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.

Current status of weak gravitational lensing
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

Weak Gravitational Lensing in Fourth Order Gravity [PDF]
For a general class of analytic $f(R,R_{\alpha\beta}R^{\alpha\beta},R_{\alpha\beta\gamma\delta}R^{\alpha\beta\gamma\delta})$ we discuss the gravitational lensing in the Newtonian Limit of theory.

Weak gravitational lensing and shadow cast by rotating black holes in axionic Chern–Simons theory [PDF]
We investigate the impact of the axionic coupling parameter on the bending angle of light and the shadow cast by slowly rotating black holes in Chern-Simons modified gravity.
