Numeric


This section provides links to numerical tools for gravitational lensing. 

 

1. The Astro-Code Wikiwww.astrosim.net/code

The Astro-Code Wiki is a growing on-line repository of software and software tests for state of the art simulation, modelling and analysis in astrophysics. There are already two sections on gravitational lens software: 

 

(i) Lensing softwarewww.astrosim.net/code/doku.php; and

(ii) Reconstruction tests for lensing softwarewww.astrosim.net/code/doku.php

 

These may be added to or edited by applying for an account on the main page. 

 

2. The SimpLens Java Appletwww.physik.uzh.ch/~psaha/astron/lens/simplens.php

A program for illustrating some of the theoretical ideas important in gravitational lensing in an interactive way.
