Strong lensing probability in TeVeS theory

Understand

We recalculate the strong lensing probability as a function of the image separation in TeVeS (tensor-vector-scalar) cosmology, which is a relativistic version of MOND (MOdified Newtonian Dynamics).

• The lens is modeled by the Hernquist profile.
• We assume an open cosmology with $\Omega_b=0.04$ and $\Omega_\Lambda=0.5$ and three different kinds of interpolating functions.
• Two different galaxy stellar mass functions (GSMF) are adopted: PHJ (Panter-Heavens-Jimenez, 2004) determined from SDSS data release one and Fontana (Fontana et al., 2006) from GOODS-MUSIC catalog.
