 Singular isothermal sphere lens

The projected density $\Sigma (R)={\sigma }^2/(2GR)$ gives cylindrical mass $\pi {\sigma }^{2}R/G$, so the reduced deflection magnitude is the constant displayed angular Einstein radius. The signed thin gravitational lens equation is $\beta =\theta -{\theta }_E\mathrm{sgn}\theta$. A source with $0<\beta <{\theta }_E$ has two images; one with $\beta >{\theta }_E$ has one. The lensing convergence and lensing shear magnitude are both ${\theta }_E/(2|\theta |)$.
