Gravitational lens time-delay as a probe of a possible time variation of the fine-structure constant
Abstract A new method based on large scale structure observations is proposed to probe a possible temporal variation of the fine-structure constant ( $$\alpha $$ α ). Our analyses are based on time-delay of Strong Gravitational Lensing and Type Ia Supernovae observations. By considering the runaway...
