Size is Everything: Universal Features of Quasar Microlensing with Extended Sources
Michael J. Mortonson, Paul L. Schechter, Joachim Wambsganss
We examine the effect that the shape of the source brightness profile has on the magnitude fluctuations of images in quasar lens systems due to microlensing. We do this by convolvi…

Qualitative aspects of quasar microlensing with two mass components: magnification patterns and probability distributions
Paul L. Schechter, Joachim Wambsganss, Geraint F. Lewis
It has been conjectured that the distribution of magnifications of a point source microlensed by a population of intervening point masses is independent of its mass spectrum. We pr…
