The finite source size effect and the wave optics in gravitational lensing
Abstract. We investigate the finite source size effect in the context of the wave optics in the gravitational lensing. The magnification of an extended source is presented in an analytic manner for the singular isothermal sphere lens model as well as the point mass lens model with the use of the thin lens approximation. The condition that the finite source size effect becomes substantial is dem...
متن کاملQuasi-geometrical Optics Approximation in Gravitational Lensing
Abstract. The gravitational lensing of gravitational waves should be treated in the wave optics instead of the geometrical optics when the wave length λ of the gravitational waves is larger than the Schwarzschild radius of the lens mass M. The wave optics is based on the diffraction integral which represents the amplification of the wave amplitude by lensing. We study the asymptotic expansion o...

متن کاملBinary Source Parallactic Effect in Gravitational Micro-lensing
The first micro-lensing event discovered towards the Small Magellanic Cloud by the MACHO collaboration (Alcock et al. 1997b) had a very long time scale, t0 = 123 days. The EROS collaboration (Palanque-Delabrouille et al. 1997) discovered a ∼ 2.5% brightness variation with a period P = 5.1 days. The OGLE collaboration (Udalski et al. 1997) established that the variation persists while the micro-...
متن کاملNumerical wave optics and the lensing of gravitational waves by globular clusters
We consider the possible effects of gravitational lensing by globular clusters on gravitational waves from asymmetric neutron stars in our galaxy. In the lensing of gravitational waves, the long wavelength, compared with the usual case of optical lensing, can lead to the geometrical optics approximation being invalid, in which case a wave optical solution is necessary. In general, wave optical ...
