초록
Gravitational lensed quasar systems are usually modelled by a source quasar lensed by an isothermal sphere galaxy. But most galaxies are elliptical and have a supermassive black hole (SMBH) at its center. We study lensing by an ellipsoid with a central SMBH to investigate the additional lensing effects of a SMBH on the number, position, and magnification of lensed images. We apply the analysis to the observed lens system Q0957+561, and explore the possibility of testing the existence of SMBH at the center of the lensing galaxy.
