Real-time Detection of Gravitational Microlensing
M. R. Pratt, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +17
Real-time detection of microlensing has moved from proof of concept in 1994 to a steady stream of events this year. Global dissemination of these events by the MACHO and OGLE colla…
The MACHO Project First Year LMC Results: The Microlensing Rate and the Nature of the Galactic Dark Halo
C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman, T. S. Axelrod +15
The MACHO collaboration reports on the analysis of our first year LMC data, 9.5 million light curves with an average of 235 observations each. Automated selection procedures give 3…
EXPERIMENTAL LIMITS ON THE DARK MATTER HALO OF THE GALAXY FROM GRAVITATIONAL MICROLENSING.
C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman, T. S. Axelrod +16
We have monitored 8.6 million stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud for 1.1 years and have found 3 events consistent with gravitational microlensing. We place strong constraints on t…
