Gravitational lensing by spinning and escaping lenses
Sep, 2002Citations per year
Abstract: (arXiv)
The effect of currents of mass on bending of light rays is considered in the weak field regime. Following Fermat's principle and the standard theory of gravitational lensing, we derive the gravitomagnetic correction to time delay function and deflection angle caused by a geometrically-thin lens. The cases of both rotating and shifting deflectors are discussed.References(6)
