Strong lensing probability in TeVeS theory
We recalculate the strong lensing probability as a function of the image separation in TeVeS (tensor-vector-scalar) cosmology, which is a relativistic version of MOND (MOdified Newtonian Dynamics). The lens is modeled by the Hernquist profile. We assume an open cosmology with Ωb = 0.04 and ΩΛ = 0.5 and three different kinds of interpolating functions. Two different galaxy stellar mass functions...
متن کاملTheoretical Aspects of Gravitational Lensing in TeVeS
Since Bekenstein’s (2004) creation of his Tensor-Vector-Scalar theory (TeVe S), the Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) paradigm has been redeemed from the embarrassment of lacking a relativistic version. One primary success of TeVe S is that it provides an enhancement of gravitational lensing, which could not be achieved by other MONDian theories. Following Bekenstein’s work, we investigate the...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Gravitational Lensing in TeVeS
Bekenstein’s (2004) TeVeS theory has added an interesting twist to the search for dark matter and dark energy, modifying the landscape of gravity-related astronomy day by day. Built bottom-up rather than top-down as most gravity theories, TeVeS-like theories are healthily rooted on empirical facts, hence immediately passing sanity checks on galaxy rotation curves, solar system constraints, even...
متن کاملTHE THEORY OF PHOTOTHERMAL LENSING SPECTROSCOPY
A general theoretical description of dual-beam photothermallensing spectroscopy is given. The results are valid for most general conditions, that is, for flowing as well as stationary media, for optically thick as well as optically thin media, and also for any transverse modes of incident pump beams
متن کاملNoise in Strong Lensing Cosmography
Giant arcs in strong lensing galaxy clusters can provide a purely geometric determination of cosmological parameters, such as the dark energy density and equation of state. We investigate sources of noise in cosmography with giant arcs, focusing in particular on errors induced by density fluctuations along the line-of-sight, and errors caused by modeling uncertainties. We estimate parameter err...
