We carried out a project involving the systematic analysis of microlensing data from the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network survey. The aim of this project is to identify lensing…
Limits on planetary-mass primordial black holes from the OGLE high-cadence survey of the Magellanic Clouds
Przemek Mróz, Andrzej Udalski, Michał K. Szymański +11
Observations of the Galactic bulge revealed an excess of short-timescale gravitational microlensing events that are generally attributed to a large population of free-floating or w…
Millinovae: A New Class of Transient Supersoft X-ray Sources without a Classical Nova Eruption
Przemek Mróz, Krzysztof Król, Hélène Szegedi +18
Some accreting binary systems containing a white dwarf (such as classical novae or persistent supersoft sources) are seen to emit low-energy X-rays with temperatures of ~10^6 K and…
Observations of Microlensed Images with Dual-field Interferometry: On-sky Demonstration and Prospects
P. Mroz, S. Dong, A. Merand +57
Interferometric observations of gravitational microlensing events offer an opportunity for precise, efficient, and direct mass and distance measurements of lensing objects, especia…
Microlensing brown-dwarf companions in binaries detected during the 2022 and 2023 seasons

Building on previous works to construct a homogeneous sample of brown dwarfs in binary systems, we investigate microlensing events detected by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Netw…
Analysis of the full Spitzer microlensing sample I: Dark remnant candidates and Gaia predictions
Krzysztof A. Rybicki, Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee +70
In the pursuit of understanding the population of stellar remnants within the Milky Way, we analyze the sample of microlensing events observed by the Spitzer Space Teles…
The OGLE Collection of Variable Stars: Over 18 000 Rotating Variables toward the Galactic Bulge
P. Iwanek, I. Soszyński, K. Stępień +14
Stellar rotation, a key factor influencing stellar structure and evolution, also drives magnetic activity, which is manifested as spots or flares on stellar surface. Here, we prese…
Four microlensing giant planets detected through signals produced by minor-image perturbations
Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Chung-Uk Lee +63
We investigated the nature of the anomalies appearing in four microlensing events KMT-2020-BLG-0757, KMT-2022-BLG-0732, KMT-2022-BLG-1787, and KMT-2022-BLG-1852. The light curves o…
Blue Large-Amplitude Pulsators and Other Short-Period Variable Stars in OGLE-IV Fields of the Outer Galactic Bulge
J. Borowicz, P. Pietrukowicz, J. Skowron +13
In this work, we search the OGLE-IV outer Galactic bulge fields for short-period variable objects. The investigation focuses on unexplored timescales roughly below one hour in an a…
KMT-2023-BLG-1866Lb: Microlensing super-Earth around an M dwarf host
Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Andrzej Udalski +64
We investigate the nature of the short-term anomaly that appears in the lensing light curve of KMT-2023-BLG-1866. The anomaly was only partly covered due to its short duration, les…
OGLE-2018-BLG-0971, MOA-2023-BLG-065, and OGLE-2023-BLG-0136: Microlensing events with prominent orbital effects
Cheongho Han, Andrzej Udalski, Ian A. Bond +60
We undertake a project to reexamine microlensing data gathered from high-cadence surveys. The aim of the project is to reinvestigate lensing events with light curves exhibiting int…
Observational Parameters of Blue Large-amplitude Pulsators
P. Pietrukowicz, M. Latour, I. Soszynski +15
Blue large-amplitude pulsators (BLAPs) are a recently discovered class of short-period pulsating variable stars. In this work, we present new information on these stars based on ph…
OGLE-2015-BLG-0845L: A low-mass M dwarf from the microlensing parallax and xallarap effects
Zhecheng Hu, Wei Zhu, Andrew Gould +51
We present the analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0845, which was affected by both the microlensing parallax and xallarap effects. The former was detected via the sim…
Discovery of the Longest-Period Classical Cepheid in the Milky Way
I. Soszyński, D. M. Skowron, A. Udalski +12
We report the discovery of the classical Cepheid OGLE-GD-CEP-1884 (= GDS_J1535467-555656) with the longest pulsation period known in our Galaxy. The period of 78.14 d is nearly 10…
