Scintillations And Microlensing
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
It is shown how the theory of scintillation may be applied to treat gravitational lensing. The theory is applied to microlensing by a system of N point masses. It is shown that scintillation theory reproduces a known result for the angular broadening due to multiple microlensing. Some unresolved differences between scintillation and microlensing theories for intensity fluctuations are pointed out.
