MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb: Cool Sub-Saturn Planet Within Predicted Desert

Greg Olmschenk, David P. Bennett, Ian A. Bond +74

We analyze the MOA-2020-BLG-208 gravitational microlensing event and present the discovery and characterization of a new planet, MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb, with an estimated sub-Saturn ma…

KMT-2021-BLG-0171Lb and KMT-2021-BLG-1689Lb: Two Microlensing Planets in the KMTNet High-cadence Fields with Followup Observations

Hongjing Yang, Weicheng Zang, Andrew Gould +56

Follow-up observations of high-magnification gravitational microlensing events can fully exploit their intrinsic sensitivity to detect extrasolar planets, especially those with sma…

An Isolated Stellar-Mass Black Hole Detected Through Astrometric Microlensing

Kailash C. Sahu, Jay Anderson, Stefano Casertano +90

We report the first unambiguous detection and mass measurement of an isolated stellar-mass black hole (BH). We used the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to carry out precise astrometry…

KMT-2021-BLG-0912Lb: A microlensing super Earth around a K-type star

Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Jennifer C. Yee +55

The light curve of the microlensing event KMT-2021-BLG-0912 exhibits a very short anomaly relative to a single-lens single-source form. We investigate the light curve for the purpo…

OGLE-2017-BLG-1186: first application of asteroseismology and Gaussian processes to microlensing

Shun-Sheng Li, Weicheng Zang, Andrzej Udalski +102

We present the analysis of the event OGLE-2017-BLG-1186 from the 2017 Spitzer microlensing campaign. This is a remarkable microlensing event because its source is photometrically b…

First simultaneous microlensing observations by two space telescopes: & reveal a brown dwarf in event OGLE-2015-BLG-1319

Y. Shvartzvald, Z. Li, A. Udalski +90

Simultaneous observations of microlensing events from multiple locations allow for the breaking of degeneracies between the physical properties of the lensing system, specifically…
