The luminosity function of Palomar 5 and its tidal tails
A. Koch, M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel +2
We present the main sequence luminosity function of the tidally disrupted globular cluster Palomar 5 and its tidal tails. For this work we analyzed imaging data obtained with the W…
PLANET II: A Microlensing and Transit Search for Extrasolar Planets
Penny D. Sackett, M. D. Albrow, J. -P. Beaulieu +16
Due to their extremely small luminosity compared to the stars they orbit, planets outside our own Solar System are extraordinarily difficult to detect directly in optical light. Ca…
Microlensing Constraints on the Frequency of Jupiter Mass Planets
B. Scott Gaudi, M. D. Albrow, Jin H. An +17
Microlensing is the only technique likely, within the next 5 years, to constrain the frequency of Jupiter-analogs. The PLANET collaboration has monitored nearly 100 microlensing ev…
The PLANET microlensing follow-up network: Results and prospects for the detection of extra-solar planets
M. Dominik, M. D. Albrow, J. -P. Beaulieu +19
Among various techniques to search for extra-solar planets, microlensing has some unique characteristics. Contrary to all other methods which favour nearby objects, microlensing is…
The Planet Collaboration: Probing Lensing Anomalies
The PLANET Collaboration, M. Albrow, J. -P. Beaulieu +16
The Probing Lensing Anomalies NETwork (PLANET) is a worldwide collaboration of astronomers using semi-dedicated European, South African, and Australian telescopes to perform contin…
