“We investigated a different method of constraining anisotropy which involved so-called weak gravitational lensing,” says Adam. Weak lensing occurs because matter between us and a distant ...

That’s called strong gravitational lensing. There is also an effect called weak gravitational lensing, in which the lens is less massive or the light source is far away, which can stretch the ...

Now, using a method called weak gravitational lensing, scientists think they've finally found the hidden intruder. The Perseus galaxy cluster is one of the most massive structures in the known ...

Now, a new paper argues that there are features in a gravitational lens (largely the product of ... built to try to catch indications of the weak interactions of WIMPs, and they've come up empty.

To hunt for that evidence, Euclid will use a technique known as weak gravitational lensing. This is similar to the strong gravitational lensing technique employed by JWST, where the mass of a ...

In contrast to strong gravitational lensing, weak lensing doesn't require a massive obstruction. Instead, as the light from many distant galaxies works its way through the cosmos, the accumulated ...

Clumps of dark matter distort the light of distant galaxies through weak gravitational lensing, a phenomenon predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity. "This distortion is a really ...
