First detection of a gravitational microlensing candidate towards the Small Magellanic Cloud
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +20
We report the first discovery of a gravitational microlensing candidate towards a new population of source stars, the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The candidate event's light curv…
The RR Lyrae Population of the Galactic Bulge from the MACHO Database
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +21
Mean colors and magnitudes of RR Lyrae stars in 24 fields towards the Galactic bulge from the MACHO database are presented. Accurate mean reddenings are computed for these fields o…
MACHO Alert 95-30 : First Real-Time Observation of Extended Source Effects in Gravitational Microlensing
C. Alcock, W. H. Allen, R. A. Allsman +54
We present analysis of MACHO Alert 95-30, a dramatic gravitational microlensing event towards the Galactic bulge whose peak magnification departs significantly from the standard po…
