Gravitational lensing by massless braneworld black holes

arXiv:1207.5502 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.86.083009

Abstract

In this paper, we study massless braneworld black holes as gravitational lenses. We find the weak and the strong deflection limits for the deflection angle, from which we calculate the positions and magnifications of the images. We compare the results obtained here with those corresponding to Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstrom spacetimes, and also with those found in previous works for some other braneworld black holes.
