Analytic model for the statistics of ultrahigh magnification events
The paper proposes a physical analytic model to explain observed high magnification events of stars, such as Icarus and Earendel, due to galaxy clusters. The authors further show that the model agrees well with simulations. Future extensions of the model could potentially have implications for constraining primordial black hole populations.
