Explicit expressions for optical scalars in gravitational lensing from general matter sources

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present explicit expressions for the optical scalars and the deection angle in terms of the energymomentum tensor components of matter distributions. Our work generalizes standard references in the literature where normally stringent assumptions are made on the sources.
