Weak Gravitational Lensing [PDF]
Proceedings of Frontiers of Fundamental Physics 14 — PoS(FFP14), 2008 In this brief review I consider the advances made in weak gravitational lensing over the last 8 years, concentrating on the large scales - cosmic shear. I outline the theoretical developments, observational status, and the challenges which cosmic shear must overcome to realise its full potential. Finally I consider the prospects for probing Dark Energy

Gravitational lensing effects of black hole with conformally coupled scalar hair
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023 In this paper, we investigate the gravitational lensing effects in the weak and strong field limits of a static black hole with conformally coupled scalar field.

Weak gravitational lensing by stringy black holes [PDF]
The European Physical Journal Plus, 2019 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. For this desire, we compute the Gaussian optical curvature and implement the Gauss-Bonnet theorem to investigate the deflection angle for spherically balanced spacetime of ...

Time delay of photons coupled to Weyl tensor in a regular phantom black hole
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020 Time delay of the photons coupled to the Weyl tensor in a regular phantom black hole is investigated in both weak and strong deflection gravitational lensing. We find that the time delay in the weak deflection lensing strongly depends on the phantom hair

Light on dark matter with weak gravitational lensing [PDF]
IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, 2010 This paper reviews statistical methods recently developed to reconstruct and analyze dark matter mass maps from weak lensing observations. The field of weak lensing is motivated by the observations made in the last decades showing that the visible matter represents only about 4-5% of the Universe, the rest being dark.

Optimizing tomography for weak gravitational lensing surveys [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT The subject of this paper is optimization of weak lensing tomography: we carry out numerical minimization of a measure of total statistical error as a function of the redshifts of the tomographic bin edges by means of a Nelder–Mead algorithm in order to optimize the sensitivity of weak lensing with respect to different ...

Degeneracy in exotic gravitational lensing [PDF]
, 2002 We present three different theoretically foreseen, but unusual, astrophysical situations where the gravitational lens equation ends up being the same, thus producing a degeneracy problem.

, 2020 In this presentation I review cosmological measurements with weak gravitational lensing using the cosmic shear technique. An intriguing tension in the parameter S8=sigma8*sqrt(Omega_m/0.3) between low-z large-scale-structure probes and the Planck primary CMB probes has been observed. This is reminiscent of the well-known H0 tension, albeit currently at
