abstract

We review theory and applications of weak gravitational lensing. After summarising Friedmann-Lemaitre cosmological models, we present the formalism of gravitational lensing and light propagation in arbitrary space-times. We discuss how weak-lensing effects can be measured. The formalism is then applied to reconstructions of galaxy-cluster mass distributions, gravitational lensing by large-scale matter distributions, QSO-galaxy correlations induced by weak lensing, lensing of galaxies by galaxies, and weak lensing of the cosmic microwave background. Contents: Introduction - Cosmological Background - Gravitational Light Deflection - Principles of Weak Gravitational Lensing - Weak Lensing by Galaxy Clusters - Weak Cosmological Lensing - QSO Magnification Bias and Large-Scale Structure - Galaxy-Galaxy Lensing - The Impact of Weak Gravitational Lensing on the Microwave Background Radiation - Summary and Outlook

Hadronic lensing

gr-qc · 2026-05-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0 · 2 refs

Hadrons described by the nonlinear sigma model minimally coupled to Maxwell theory modify photon paths away from null geodesics, enabling analytic hadronic corrections to gravitational lensing deflection angles.

Ultralight dark matter in long-baseline accelerator neutrino oscillations

hep-ph · 2023-12-18 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Systematic study of scalar and vector ULDM interactions on long-baseline neutrino oscillations finds order-of-magnitude weaker constraints for m_φ ≲ 10^{-17} eV due to stochastic effects, with combined T2K+NOvA data showing no alleviation of δ_CP discrepancy.

Final Planck CMB data confirms the flat 6-parameter ΛCDM model with Ω_c h² = 0.120 ± 0.001, Ω_b h² = 0.0224 ± 0.0001, n_s = 0.965 ± 0.004, τ = 0.054 ± 0.007, H_0 = 67.4 ± 0.5 km/s/Mpc, and no strong evidence for extensions.
