Microlensing events indicate that super-Earth exoplanets are common in Jupiter-like orbits

Weicheng Zang, Youn Kil Jung, Jennifer C. Yee +65

Exoplanets classified as super-Earths are commonly observed on short period orbits, close to their host stars, but their abundance on wider orbits is poorly constrained. Gravitatio…

Systematic Reanalysis of KMTNet Microlensing Events, Paper II: Two New Planets in Giant-Source Events

Hongjing Yang, Jennifer C. Yee, Jiyuan Zhang +61

In this work, we continue to apply the updated KMTNet tender-love care (TLC) photometric pipeline to historical microlensing events. We apply the pipeline to a subsample of events…

Systematic Search for FFPs in KMTNet Full-Frame Images. I. Photometry Pipeline

Qiyue Qian, Hongjing Yang, Weicheng Zang +22

To exhume the buried signatures of free-floating planets (FFPs) with small angular Einstein radius , we build a new full-frame difference image pipeline for the Korean M…

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XI. Complete Sample of 2016 Sub-Prime Field Planets

In-Gu Shin, Jennifer C. Yee, Weicheng Zang +63

Following Shin et al. (2023b), which is a part of the Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search series (i.e., a search for planets in the 2016 KMTNet prime fields), we conduct a s…

OGLE-2017-BLG-0448Lb: A Low Mass-Ratio Wide-Orbit Microlensing Planet?

Ruocheng Zhai, Radosław Poleski, Weicheng Zang +38

The gravitational microlensing technique is most sensitive to planets in a Jupiter-like orbit and has detected more than 200 planets. However, only a few wide-orbit () micro…
