Gravitational Shear, Flexion and Strong Lensing

We present a gravitational lensing analysis of the galaxy cluster Abell 1689, incorporating measurements of the weak shear, flexion, and strong lensing induced in background galaxies. This is the first time that a shapelet technique has been used to reconstruct the distribution of mass in this cluster, and the first time that a flexion signal has been measured using cluster members as lenses. F...

Testing a New Analytic Model for Gravitational Lensing Probabilities

We study gravitational lensing with a multiple lens plane approach, proposing a simple analytical model for the probability distribution function (PDF) of the dark matter convergence, κ, for the different lens planes in a given cosmology as a function of redshift and smoothing angle, θ. The model is fixed solely by the variance of κ, which in turn is fixed by the amplitude of the power spectrum...

Multipole Formulae for Gravitational Lensing Shear and Flexion

The gravitational lensing equations for convergence, potential, shear, and flexion are simple in polar coordinates and separate under a multipole expansion once the shear and flexion spinors are rotated into a “tangential” basis. We use this to investigate whether the useful monopole aperture-mass shear formulae generalize to all multipoles and to flexions. We re-derive the result of Schneider ...
