The Microlensing Event Rate and Optical Depth from MOA-II 9 year Survey toward the Galactic Bulge
Kansuke Nunota, Takahiro Sumi, Naoki Koshimoto +23
We present measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Galactic bulge using the dataset from the 2006--2014 MOA-II survey, which covers 22 bulge fields…
Microlensing brown-dwarf companions in binaries detected during the 2022 and 2023 seasons
Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Andrzej Udalski +63
Building on previous works to construct a homogeneous sample of brown dwarfs in binary systems, we investigate microlensing events detected by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Netw…
Analysis of the full Spitzer microlensing sample I: Dark remnant candidates and Gaia predictions
Krzysztof A. Rybicki, Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee +70
In the pursuit of understanding the population of stellar remnants within the Milky Way, we analyze the sample of microlensing events observed by the Spitzer Space Teles…
Four microlensing giant planets detected through signals produced by minor-image perturbations
Cheongho Han, Ian A. Bond, Chung-Uk Lee +63
We investigated the nature of the anomalies appearing in four microlensing events KMT-2020-BLG-0757, KMT-2022-BLG-0732, KMT-2022-BLG-1787, and KMT-2022-BLG-1852. The light curves o…
Measurement of Dependence of Microlensing Planet Frequency on The Host Star Mass and Galactocentric Distance by using a Galactic Model
Kansuke Nunota, Naoki Koshimoto, Daisuke Suzuki +6
We measure the dependence of planet frequency on host star mass, , and distance from the Galactic center, , using a sample of planets discovered by gravitatio…
Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. XI. Complete Sample of 2016 Sub-Prime Field Planets
In-Gu Shin, Jennifer C. Yee, Weicheng Zang +63
Following Shin et al. (2023b), which is a part of the Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search series (i.e., a search for planets in the 2016 KMTNet prime fields), we conduct a s…
