Microlensing events indicate that super-Earth exoplanets are common in Jupiter-like orbits

Weicheng Zang, Youn Kil Jung, Jennifer C. Yee +65

Exoplanets classified as super-Earths are commonly observed on short period orbits, close to their host stars, but their abundance on wider orbits is poorly constrained. Gravitatio…

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search, Paper III: One Wide-Orbit Planet And Two Stellar Binaries

Hanyue Wang, Weicheng Zang, Wei Zhu +36

Only a few wide-orbit planets around old stars have been detected, which limits our statistical understanding of this planet population. Following the systematic search for planeta…

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search, Paper II: Six New Mass-ratio Planets

Kyu-Ha Hwang, Weicheng Zang, Andrew Gould +62

We apply the automated AnomalyFinder algorithm of Paper I (Zang et al. 2021b) to 2018-2019 light curves from the covered by the six KMTNet prime fields, wi…

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search, Paper I: OGLE-2019-BLG-1053Lb, A Buried Terrestrial Planet

Weicheng Zang, Kyu-Ha Hwang, Andrzej Udalski +69

In order to exhume the buried signatures of "missing planetary caustics" in the KMTNet data, we conducted a systematic anomaly search to the residuals from point-source point-lens…

Microlensing Predictions: Impact of Galactic Disc Dynamical Models

Hongjing Yang, Shude Mao, Weicheng Zang +1

Galactic model plays an important role in the microlensing field, not only for analyses of individual events but also for statistics of the ensemble of events. However, the Galacti…
