 | | The amplitude, the shape and the duration of flares of the lensed object are defined by the relationships between the parameters of the binary system, the major semiaxis a, the masses and radii of the components and the orbital plane orientation. |
 | | The luminosity magnification of a uniformly radiating disk in gravitational lensing was analysed in detail in the papers by Refsdal (1964), Liebes (1964), Byalko (1969), Ingel (1972, 1974), Maeder (1973) and Agol (2002). |
 | | Since in gravitational lensing, the surface brightness remains constant, the light curve is determined as variation of the ratio of the image areas and the source itself, depending on the position of the binary system components with respect to the observer, which varies during the period of rotation. |
