Microlensing optical depth, event rate, and limits on compact objects in dark matter based on 20 yr of OGLE observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud
P. Mróz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymański +12
Some previous studies have suggested that massive and intermediate-mass primordial black holes (PBHs) could comprise a substantial fraction of dark matter in the Universe. Such bla…
Microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud based on 20 years of OGLE observations
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +14
Measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) can be used to probe the distribution and mass function of compact objects in…
A three-dimensional map of the Milky Way using 66,000 Mira variable stars
Patryk Iwanek, Radosław Poleski, Szymon Kozłowski +13
We study the three-dimensional structure of the Milky Way using 65,981 Mira variable stars discovered by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) survey. The spatial dis…
An isolated mass gap black hole or neutron star detected with astrometric microlensing
Casey Y. Lam, Jessica R. Lu, Andrzej Udalski +42
We present the analysis of five black hole candidates identified from gravitational microlensing surveys. Hubble Space Telescope astrometric data and densely sampled lightcurves fr…
Microlensing optical depth and event rate in the OGLE-IV Galactic plane fields
Przemek Mroz, Andrzej Udalski, Michal K. Szymanski +10
Searches for gravitational microlensing events are traditionally concentrated on the central regions of the Galactic bulge but many microlensing events are expected to occur in the…
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…
Rotation curve of the Milky Way from Classical Cepheids
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, D. M. Skowron +7
Flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies are considered as an evidence for dark matter, but the rotation curve of the Milky Way is difficult to measure. Various objects were used to…
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…
A Gravitationally Lensed Quasar Discovered in OGLE
Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska, S. Kozłowski, C. Lemon +15
We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed quasar (double) from the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) identified inside the 670 sq. deg area encomp…
OGLE Collection of Star Clusters. New Objects in the Magellanic Bridge and the Outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud
M. Sitek, M. K. Szymański, A. Udalski +13
The Magellanic System (MS) encompasses the nearest neighbors of the Milky Way, the Large (LMC) and Small (SMC) Magellanic Clouds, and the Magellanic Bridge (MBR). This system conta…
OGLE-ing the Magellanic System: Three-Dimensional Structure of the Clouds and the Bridge Using RR Lyrae Stars
Anna M. Jacyszyn-Dobrzeniecka, D. M. Skowron, P. Mróz +10
We present a three-dimensional analysis of a sample of 22 859 type RR Lyrae stars in the Magellanic System from the OGLE-IV Collection of RR Lyrae stars. The distance to each…
OGLE Collection of Star Clusters. New Objects in the Outskirts of the Large Magellanic Cloud
M. Sitek, M. K. Szymański, D. M. Skowron +13
The Magellanic System (MS), consisting of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and the Magellanic Bridge (MBR), contains diverse sample of star cluste…
OGLE-ing the Magellanic System: Three-Dimensional Structure of the Clouds and the Bridge Using Classical Cepheids
Anna M. Jacyszyn-Dobrzeniecka, D. M. Skowron, P. Mróz +10
We analyzed a sample of 9418 fundamental-mode and first-overtone Classical Cepheids from the OGLE-IV Collection of Classical Cepheids. The distance to each Cepheid was calculated u…
Extremely metal-poor stars from the cosmic dawn in the bulge of the Milky Way
L. M. Howes, A. R. Casey, M. Asplund +22
The first stars are predicted to have formed within 200 million years after the Big Bang, initiating the cosmic dawn. A true first star has not yet been discovered, although stars…
OGLE-IV Real-Time Transient Search
L. Wyrzykowski, Z. Kostrzewa-Rutkowska, S. Kozlowski +11
We present the design and first results of a real-time search for transients within the 650 sq. deg. area around the Magellanic Clouds, conducted as part of the OGLE-IV project and…
Large Variety of New Pulsating Stars in the OGLE-III Galactic Disk Fields
P. Pietrukowicz, W. A. Dziembowski, P. Mroz +10
We present the results of a search for pulsating stars in the 7.12 deg^2 OGLE-III Galactic disk area in the direction tangent to the Centaurus Arm. We report the identification of…
