Abstract

We present a new method to estimate time delays from light curves of lensed quasars. The method is based on chi (2) minimization between the data anda numerical model light curve. A linear variation can be included in orderto correct for slow long-term microlensing effects in one of the lensed images. An iterative version of the method can be applied in order to correctfor higher-order microlensing effects. The method is tested on simulated light curves. When higher-order microlensing effects are present, the time delay is best constrained with the iterative method. Analysis of a publisheddata set for the lensed double Q 0957+561 yields results in agreement withother published estimates.
