A Tale of Two Wide Separation Gravitational Lenses
(2008)
Wide separation gravitational lens systems are good candidates to probe the matter (luminous+dark) distribution in massive halos. Investigation of two wide separation lens systems is carried out. MG 2016+112 is a quadruply ...
Measuring cosmological weak lensing using the Advanced Camera for Surveys on board the Hubble Space Telescope
(2008)
Following from the theory of General Relativity, light-bundles are deflected and differentially distorted while passing through the gravitational potential of matter inhomogeneities. The gravitational lensing effect caused ...
The non-Gaussian matter power spectrum covariance in the halo model approach
(2008)
Weak gravitational lensing is one of the most promising tools to analyze the nature of dark energy and dark matter. In order to constrain cosmological parameters with this method a good theoretical understanding of the ...
