Gravitational lensing by spinning stars, approximated as homogeneous spheres, is discussed in the weak field limit. Dragging of inertial frames, induced by angular momentum of the deflector, breaks spherical symmetry. I examine how the gravito-magnetic field affects image positions, caustics and critical curves. Distortion in microlensing-induced light curves is also considered.

  1. Dark matter imprints on a caustic encounter in an effective spinning black hole binary lens

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A cored dark-matter correction to a binary lens leaves a small but persistent caustic-timing shift after a spinning vacuum model is fitted to mimic it.
