Two new free-floating or wide-orbit planets from microlensing

P. Mroz, A. Udalski, D. P. Bennett +57

Planet formation theories predict the existence of free-floating planets that have been ejected from their parent systems. Although they emit little or no light, they can be detect…

Three-Dimensional Distributions of Type II Cepheids and Anomalous Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds. Do these Stars Belong to the Old, Young or Intermediate-Age Population?

P. Iwanek, I. Soszyński, D. Skowron +8

The nature of type II Cepheids and anomalous Cepheids is still not well known and their evolutionary channels leave many unanswered questions. We use complete collection of classic…

Discovery of two quasars at from the OGLE Survey

Szymon Kozłowski, Eduardo Bañados, A. Udalski +16

We have used deep Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE-IV) images ( mag, mag at ) of the Magellanic System, encompassing an area of $\s…

OGLE Collection of Galactic Cepheids

A. Udalski, I. Soszyński, P. Pietrukowicz +10

We present here a new major part of the OGLE Collection of Variable Stars - OGLE Collection of Galactic Cepheids. The new dataset was extracted from the Galaxy Variability Survey i…

The OGLE Collection of Variable Stars. Type II Cepheids in the Magellanic System

I. Soszyński, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymański +10

We present a nearly complete collection of type II Cepheids in the Magellanic System. The sample consists of 338 objects: 285 and 53 variables in the Large and Small Magellanic Clo…

A three-dimensional map of the Milky Way using classical Cepheid variable stars

D. M. Skowron, J. Skowron, P. Mróz +9

The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, with physical properties inferred from various tracers informed by the extrapolation of structures seen in other galaxies. However, the dis…

Microlensing Parallax for OGLE-2017-BLG-0896 Reveals a Counter-Rotating Low-Mass Brown Dwarf

Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee, Jan Skowron +63

The kinematics of isolated brown dwarfs in the Galaxy, beyond the solar neighborhood, is virtually unknown. Microlensing has the potential to probe this hidden population, as it ca…

Spitzer Opens New Path to Break Classic Degeneracy for Jupiter-Mass Microlensing Planet OGLE-2017-BLG-1140Lb

S. Calchi Novati, J. Skowron, Y. K. Jung +36

We analyze the combined Spitzer and ground-based data for OGLE-2017-BLG-1140 and show that the event was generated by a Jupiter-class planet orbiting…

OGLE-2017-BLG-0482Lb: A Microlensing Super-Earth Orbiting a Low-mass Host Star

C. Han, Y. Hirao, A. Udalski +62

We report the discovery of a planetary system in which a super-earth orbits a late M-dwarf host. The planetary system was found from the analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-201…

OGLE-2017-BLG-0329L: A Microlensing Binary Characterized with Dramatically Enhanced Precision Using Data from Space-based Observations

C. Han, S. Calchi Novati, A. Udalski +54

Mass measurements of gravitational microlenses require one to determine the microlens parallax $\pie$, but precise $\pie$ measurement, in many cases, is hampered due to the subtlet…

OGLE-2017-BLG-1434Lb: Eighth q < 1 * 10^-4 Mass-Ratio Microlens Planet Confirms Turnover in Planet Mass-Ratio Function

A. Udalski, Y. -H. Ryu, S. Sajadian +55

We report the discovery of a cold Super-Earth planet (m_p=4.4 +/- 0.5 M_Earth) orbiting a low-mass (M=0.23 +/- 0.03 M_Sun) M dwarf at projected separation a_perp = 1.18 +/- 0.10 AU…

OGLE-2017-BLG-0373Lb: A Jovian Mass-Ratio Planet Exposes A New Accidental Microlensing Degeneracy

J. Skowron, Y. -H. Ryu, K. -H. Hwang +30

We report the discovery of microlensing planet OGLE-2017-BLG-0373Lb. We show that while the planet-host system has an unambiguous microlens topology, there are two geometries withi…
