形状、剪切和弯曲:真实质量剖面的分析弯曲形式主义

Shape, shear & flexion: An analytic flexion formalism for realistic mass profiles

Paul Lasky, Chris Fluke

摘要:

引力透镜效应是一种非线性的引力透镜效应,它是由图像上的会聚和剪切的梯度引起的。在薄透镜近似下,我们导出了一个描述非线性引力透镜的形式。这为我们提供了相对简单的表达式,第一和第二屈曲方面只有表面密度和投影质量分布的晶状体。我们详细介绍了精确的镜头模型,特别是提供屈曲计算的塞尔西定律的配置文件,这已成为近年来越来越受欢迎。我们进一步提供了一个单一的资源,为以下质量分布的收敛,剪切,第一和第二屈曲的分析形式:一个质点,奇异等温球(SIS); Navarro-Frenk-White(NFW)配置文件; Sersic定律配置文件。我们定量地比较这些质量分布,并表明收敛和第一屈曲是更好的指标的Sersic形状参数,而对于浓度的NFW配置文件的剪切和第二屈曲项是首选。

英文摘要:

Flexion is a non-linear gravitational lensing effect that arises from gradients in the convergence and shear across an image. We derive a formalism that describes non-linear gravitational lensing by a circularly symmetric lens in the thin-lens approximation. This provides us with relatively simple expressions for first- and second-flexion in terms of only the surface density and projected mass distribution of the lens. We give details of exact lens models, in particular providing flexion calculations for a Sersic-law profile, which has become increasingly popular over recent years. We further provide a single resource for the analytic forms of convergence, shear, first- and second-flexion for the following mass distributions: a point mass, singular isothermal sphere (SIS); Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) profile; Sersic-law profile. We quantitatively compare these mass distributions and show that the convergence and first-flexion are better indicators of the Sersic shape parameter, while for the concentration of NFW profiles the shear and second-flexion terms are preferred.
