KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c: A Cold Super-Jupiter with a Saturn Sibling

Hongyu Li, Jiyuan Zhang, Cheongho Han +72

We present the discovery and analysis of the sixth microlensing two-planet system, KMT-2022-BLG-1818Lb,c, detected by a follow-up program targeting high-magnification events. Both…

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…

How Rare are TESS Free-Floating Planets?

Hongjing Yang, Weicheng Zang, Tianjun Gan +3

Recently, Kunimoto et al. claimed that a short-lived signal in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Sector 61 database was possibly caused by a microlensing event with…

OGLE-2017-BLG-0448Lb: A Low Mass-Ratio Wide-Orbit Microlensing Planet?

Ruocheng Zhai, Radosław Poleski, Weicheng Zang +38

The gravitational microlensing technique is most sensitive to planets in a Jupiter-like orbit and has detected more than 200 planets. However, only a few wide-orbit () micro…
