Hundred Years of Gravitational Lensing

Explore the fascinating world of gravitational lensing in this comprehensive lecture by astrophysicist Parameswaran Ajith. Delve into the history and significance of gravitational light bending as the first observational test of Einstein's general theory of relativity. Discover how gravitational lensing has become a powerful tool in astronomy over the past few decades. Learn about the expected lensing of gravitational waves and its potential impact on future astronomical observations. Examine the prospects of detecting lensing signatures in gravitational waves and the new astronomical probes this could enable. Gain insights into various aspects of gravitational-wave physics and astronomy from an expert in the field. Explore topics such as strong and weak lensing, dark matter, compact binary mergers, and intermediate-mass black holes. Understand the importance of gravitational wave observations in measuring cosmic distances and providing evidence for lensing phenomena.
