Place: CAS Building, 6th Floor

Strong gravitational lensing is one of the legacies of Einstein’s theory that producing multiple images of a distant background source appears on the sky due to light rays being deflected by a massive compact object in between the source and an observer. These phenomena appear as a powerful probe of the dark matter structure of small structures in the Universe, as well as an independent tool for constraining cosmological parameters, and new observational tests of dark matter scenarios. Rapid progress in current and ongoing large galaxy surveys makes it possible to detect numerous and various types of gravitational lenses. Recently, we have observed the first discoveries of strongly lensed supernovae, and strong lensing events of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers are expected to be observed soon. In this seminar, I summarize the current state of research on strong gravitational lensing and discuss future prospects.
