Numerical Methods in Gravitational Lensing | | Matthias Bartelmann
; | | Date: |
9 Apr 2003 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Abstract: | Most problems in gravitational lensing require numerical solutions. The most frequent types of problems are (1) finding multiple images of a single source and classifying the images according to their properties like magnification or distortion; (2) propagating light rays through large cosmological simulations; and (3) reconstructing mass distributions from their tidal field. This lecture describes methods for solving such problems. Emphasis is put on using adaptive-grid methods for finding images, issues of spatial resolution and reliability of statistics for weak lensing by large-scale structures, and methodical questions related to shear-inversion techniques. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0304162 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
