From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There really should be an independent article on this important subject and not just a re-direct to Gravitational lens. Could an outline be:

  • A quick outline
  • Short introduction to the mathematics (the Paczynski curve)
  • Deviations from the Paczynski curve: Parallax/xallarap, finite source effects, binary lens/source.
  • What can it be used for - and by whom:
    • OGLE
    • MicroFUN
    • MOA
    • MACHO
    • PLANET
    • EROS (although they don't exist anymore)
