T1 - Qualitative aspects of quasar microlensing with two mass components : Magnification patterns and probability distributions N2 - It has been conjectured that the distribution of magnifications of a point source microlensed by a randomly distributed population of intervening point masses is independent of its mass spectrum. We present gedanken experiments that cast doubt on this conjecture and numerical simulations that show it to be false Y1 - 2004 UR - https://publishup.uni-potsdam.de/frontdoor/index/index/docId/15315 SN - 0004-637X ER -
