Gravitational Lensing in Inhomogeneous Universes
I describe a new approach (developed in collaboration with D.E. Holz) to calculating the statistical distributions for magnification, shear, and rotation of images of cosmological sources due to gravitational lensing by mass inhomogeneities on galactic and smaller scales. Our approach is somewhat similar to that used in “Swiss cheese” models, but the “cheese” has been completely eliminated, the...
متن کاملInhomogeneous dusty Universes and their deceleration
Exact results stemming directly from Einstein equations imply that inhomogeneous Universes endowed with vanishing pressure density can only decelerate, unless the energy density of the Universe becomes negative. Recent proposals seem to argue that inhomogeneous (but isotropic) space-times, filled only with incoherent matter, may turn into accelerated Universes for sufficiently late times. To sc...
متن کاملSolving the Inverse Problem with Inhomogeneous Universes
We construct the Lemâıtre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) dust universe whose distanceredshift relation is equivalent to that in the concordance Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmological model. In our model, the density distribution and velocity field are not homogeneous, whereas the big-bang time is uniform, which implies that the universe is homogeneous at its beginning. We also study the effects of local cl...
متن کاملLight Propagation in Inhomogeneous Universes Iii. Distributions of Image Separations
Using an analytical model, we compute the distribution of image separations resulting from gravitational lensing of distant sources, for 7 COBE-normalized CDM models with various combinations of Ω0 and λ0. Our model assumes that multiple imaging results from strong lensing by individual galaxies. We model galaxies as nonsingular isothermal spheres whose parameters are functions of the luminosit...
متن کاملDistance-Redshift in Inhomogeneous FLRW
We give distance–redshift relations in terms of elliptic integrals for three different mass distributions of the Friedmann-Lemâitre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) cosmology. These models are dynamically pressure free FLRW on large scales but, due to mass inhomogeneities, differ in their optical properties. They are the filled-beam model (standard FLRW), the empty-beam model (no mass density exists in ...
