Analytical formulas for gravitational lensing: higher order calculation
Abstract
We extend to higher order a recently published method for calculating the deflection angle of light in a general static and spherically symmetric metric. Since the method is convergent we obtain very accurate analytical expressions that we compare with numerical results.
