Aperture multipole moments from weak gravitational lensing

The projected mass of a gravitational lens inside an (circular) aperture can be derived from the measured shear inside an annulus which is caused by the tidal field of the deflecting mass distribution. Here we show that also the multipoles of the two-dimensional mass distribution can be derived from...
