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…

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…

Spitzer Microlensing Program as a Probe for Globular Cluster Planets. Analysis of OGLE-2015-BLG-0448

Radosław Poleski, Wei Zhu, Grant W. Christie +83

The microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0448 was observed by Spitzer and lay within the tidal radius of the globular cluster NGC 6558. The event had moderate magnification and was int…

Characterizing Lenses and Lensed Stars of High-Magnification Single-lens Gravitational Microlensing Events With Lenses Passing Over Source Stars

J. -Y. Choi, I. -G. Shin, S. -Y. Park +148

We present the analysis of the light curves of 9 high-magnification single-lens gravitational microlensing events with lenses passing over source stars, including OGLE-2004-BLG-254…

Microlensing Binaries Discovered through High-Magnification Channel

I. -G. Shin, J. -Y. Choi, S. -Y. Park +148

Microlensing can provide a useful tool to probe binary distributions down to low-mass limits of binary companions. In this paper, we analyze the light curves of 8 binary lensing ev…

Binary microlensing event OGLE-2009-BLG-020 gives a verifiable mass, distance and orbit predictions

J. Skowron, A. Udalski, A. Gould +99

We present the first example of binary microlensing for which the parameter measurements can be verified (or contradicted) by future Doppler observations. This test is made possibl…
