7 Sep 1995 | Journal: | Astrophys.J. 464 (1996) 114-124 | Subject: | astro-ph | Abstract: | For a given source and lens pair, there is a thin on-axis tube-like volume behind the lens in which the radiation flux from the source is greatly increased due to gravitational lensing. Any objects (such as dust grains) which pass through such a thin tube will experience strong bursts of radiation, i.e., Extreme Gravitational Lensing Events (EGLE). We study the physics and statistics of EGLE for the case in which finite source size is more important than shear. One of the several possible significant astrophysical effects is investigated with an illustrative calculation. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9509042 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
