H-alpha Equivalent Width Variations across the Face of a Microlensed K Giant in the Galactic Bulge

M. Albrow, J. An, J. -P. Beaulieu +14

We present VLT FORS1 spectroscopy that temporally resolves the second caustic crossing of the Bulge K giant source of microlensing event EROS 2000-BLG-5, the first time this has be…

A 2.14 ms Candidate Optical Pulsar in SN1987A

J. Middleditch, J. A. Kristian, W. E. Kunkel +10

We have monitored Supernova 1987A in optical/near-infrared bands from a few weeks following its birth until the present time in order to search for a pulsar remnant. We have found…

Limits on the Abundance of Galactic Planets From Five Years of Planet Observations

M. D. Albrow, J. An, J. -P. Beaulieu +21

We search for signatures of planets in 43 intensively monitored microlensing events that were observed between 1995 and 1999. Planets would be expected to cause a short duration (~…

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…

PLANET observations of microlensing event OGLE-1999-BUL-23: limb darkening measurement of the source star

M. D. Albrow, J. An, J. -P. Beaulieu +17

We present PLANET observations of OGLE-1999-BUL-23, a binary-lens microlensing event towards the Galactic bulge. PLANET observations in the I and V bands cover the event from just…
