Gravitational Lensing

Add to Your Report

  1.  Show a plot of dark-pixel-intensity VS time for your microlensing experiment. Fit that data using the equations in Section 2.4. Use the results of your fit to determine the ‘mass’ of the lens.
  2. Compare your mass measurement via microlensing to your other results and the expected mass of the lens.  Do they agree?
