Microlensing of a Biconical Broad Line Region
C. Abajas, E. Mediavilla, J. A. Munoz +2
The influence of microlensing in the profiles of the emission lines generated in a biconical geometry is discussed. Microlensing amplification in this anisotropic model is not dire…
Gravitationally Lensed QSOs: Optical Monitoring with the EOCA and the Liverpool Telescope (LT)
L. J. Goicoechea, A. Ullan, J. E. Ovaldsen +3
The aim of this contribution is to present the two first phases of the optical monitoring programme of the Gravitational Lenses group at the Universidad de Cantabria (GLUC, http://…
Is there a caustic crossing in the lensed quasar Q2237+0305 observational data record?
R. Gil-Merino, J. Gonzalez-Cadelo, L. J. Goicoechea +2
We re-investigate the gravitationally lensed system Q2237+0305 data record to quantify the probability of having a caustic crossing in the A component. Several works assume that th…
Quasar Microlensing: when compact masses mimic smooth matter
Geraint F. Lewis, Rodrigo Gil-Merino
The magnification induced by gravitational microlensing is sensitive to the size of a source relative to the Einstein radius, the natural microlensing scale length. This paper inve…
Seeing Star Formation Regions with Gravitational Microlensing
Rodrigo Gil-Merino, Geraint F. Lewis
We qualitatively study the effects of gravitational microlensing on our view of unresolved extragalactic star formation regions. Using a general gravitational microlensing configur…
