Einstein beams and the diffractive aspect of gravitationally-lensed light

The study of light lensed by cosmic matter has yielded much information about astrophysical questions. Observations are explained using geometrical optics following a ray-based description of light. After deflection the lensed light interferes, but observing this diffractive aspect of gravitational...
