  • Summary

  • Welcome back to Part 2 of Gravitational lenses on Whimsical Wavelengths. In part 2 we finally get to the real star of the show, strong gravitational lensing and the paper that was underlying the topic.

    “Euclid: A complete Einstein ring in NGC 6505 “

    A lot less to setup this time. No need to stretch this out like gravity stretches time.

    But.....

    How did gravity stop the reckless driver?

    It pulled some strings… mainly the ones holding the car to the road.

    Before everything gets pulled downhill, time to jump in Please welcome back Dr Georgios Vernardos!
