Asymptotic Giant Branch Variables in NGC 6822
Francois Nsengiyumva, Patricia W. Whitelock, Michael W. Feast +1
Using multi-epoch JHK photometry obtained with the 1.4-m Japanese-South African Infrared Survey Facility at Sutherland we have identified large numbers of AGB variables in NGC 6822…
A sub-Saturn Mass Planet, MOA-2009-BLG-319Lb
N. Miyake, T. Sumi, Subo Dong +119
We report the gravitational microlensing discovery of a sub-Saturn mass planet, MOA-2009-BLG-319Lb, orbiting a K or M-dwarf star in the inner Galactic disk or Galactic bulge. The h…
OGLE-2009-BLG-092/MOA-2009-BLG-137: A Dramatic Repeating Event With the Second Perturbation Predicted by Real-Time Analysis
Y. -H. Ryu, C. Han, K. -H. Hwang +105
We report the result of the analysis of a dramatic repeating gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2009-BLG-092/MOA-2009-BLG-137, for which the light curve is characterized by two…
OGLE-2005-BLG-153: Microlensing Discovery and Characterization of A Very Low Mass Binary
K. -H. Hwang, A. Udalski, C. Han +77
The mass function and statistics of binaries provide important diagnostics of the star formation process. Despite this importance, the mass function at low masses remains poorly kn…
OGLE 2008--BLG--290: An accurate measurement of the limb darkening of a Galactic Bulge K Giant spatially resolved by microlensing
P. Fouque, D. Heyrovsky, S. Dong +115
Gravitational microlensing is not only a successful tool for discovering distant exoplanets, but it also enables characterization of the lens and source stars involved in the lensi…
Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in the Leo I Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
John W. Menzies, Patricia A. Whitelock, Michael W. Feast +1
Twenty six Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) variables are identified in the Local Group galaxy Leo I. These include 7 Mira and 5 semi-regular variables for which periods, amplitudes a…
A Cold Neptune-Mass Planet OGLE-2007-BLG-368Lb: Cold Neptunes Are Common
T. Sumi, D. P. Bennett, I. A. Bond +104
We present the discovery of a Neptune-mass planet OGLE-2007-BLG-368Lb with a planet-star mass ratio of q=[9.5 +/- 2.1] x 10^{-5} via gravitational microlensing. The planetary devia…
