Euclid-Roman joint microlensing survey: early mass measurement, free floating planets and exomoons
Etienne Bachelet, David Specht, Matthew Penny +12
As the Kepler mission has done for hot exoplanets, the ESA Euclid and NASA Roman missions have the potential to create a breakthrough in our understanding of the demographics of co…
The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer: the Composition and Dynamics of the Faint Universe
Alan McConnachie, Carine Babusiaux, Michael Balogh +173
MSE is an 11.25m aperture observatory with a 1.5 square degree field of view that will be fully dedicated to multi-object spectroscopy. More than 3200 fibres will feed spectrograph…
Besançon Galactic model analysis of MOA-II microlensing: evidence for a mass deficit in the inner bulge
Supachai Awiphan, Eamonn Kerins, Annie Robin
Galactic bulge microlensing surveys provide a probe of Galactic structure. We present the first field-by-field comparison between microlensing observations and the Besançon popula…
CFBDS J005910.90-011401.3: reaching the T-Y Brown Dwarf transition?
Philippe Delorme, Xavier Delfosse, Loic Albert +9
We report the discovery of CFBDS J005910.90-011401.3 (hereafter CFBDS0059), the coolest brown dwarf identified to date. We found CFBDS0059 using i' and z' images from the Canada-Fr…
Structure and kinematical properties of the Galaxy at intermediate galactic latitudes
Devendra Ojha, Olivier Bienayme, Annie Robin +2
We have carried out a sample survey in UBVR photometry and proper motions in different directions in the Galaxy, as part of an investigation of galactic structure and evolution. Th…
