Vacuum Decaying Cosmological Models and Gravitational Lensing

  • Conference paper
Astrophysical Applications of Gravitational Lensing

Abstract

We investigate the statistical properties of gravitational lenses for flat models in which a cosmological term decreases with time as Λ ∝ a m, where a is the scale factor and m is a parameter (0 ≤ m < 3) (Bloomfield Torres and Waga 1995).
