Unique Science from a Coordinated LSST-WFIRST Survey of the Galactic Bulge
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, M. Donachie +19
NASA's WFIRST mission will perform a wide-field, NIR survey of the Galactic Bulge to search for exoplanets via the microlensing techniques. As the mission is due to launch in the m…
The Diverse Science Return from a Wide-Area Survey of the Galactic Plane
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, S. Khakpash +19
The overwhelming majority of objects visible to LSST lie within the Galactic Plane. Though many previous surveys have avoided this region for fear of stellar crowding, LSST's spati…
First assessment of the binary lens OGLE-2015_BLG-0232
E. Bachelet, V. Bozza, C. Han +51
We present an analysis of the microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0232. This event is challenging to characterize for two reasons. First, the light curve is not well sampled during th…
OGLE-2014-BLG-1186: gravitational microlensing providing evidence for a planet orbiting the foreground star or for a close binary source?
M. Dominik, E. Bachelet, V. Bozza +40
(abridged) Using the particularly long gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2014-BLG-1186 with a time-scale ~ 300 d, we present a methodology for identifying the na…
VBBinaryLensing: a public package for microlensing light curve computation
V. Bozza, E. Bachelet, F. Bartolić +3
The computation of microlensing light curves represents a bottleneck for the modeling of planetary events, making broad searches in the vast parameter space of microlensing extreme…
Microlensing Parallax for OGLE-2017-BLG-0896 Reveals a Counter-Rotating Low-Mass Brown Dwarf
Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee, Jan Skowron +63
The kinematics of isolated brown dwarfs in the Galaxy, beyond the solar neighborhood, is virtually unknown. Microlensing has the potential to probe this hidden population, as it ca…
