Gravitational lensing by massless braneworld black holes    [PDF]

Ernesto F. Eiroa, Carlos M. Sendra

In this paper, we study massless braneworld black holes as gravitational lenses. We find the weak and the strong deflection limits for the deflection angle, from which we calculate the positions and magnifications of the images. We compare the results obtained here with those corresponding to Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstrom spacetimes.
