Gravitational Lensing and the Redshift Distribution of $B>25$ galaxies
Abstract
Description
In addition to the determination of the mass distribution of lenses (see P. Schneider, this conference), strong and weak lensing can also be powerfull tools to analyse the redshift distribution of faint galaxies. In this review, I summarize the present status of redshifts of galaxies beyond $B=25$ as they are inferred by spectroscopy of magnified galaxies, lensing inversion and magnification bias.
