Incorporating physical source parameters into microlensing modeling
Mateusz J. Mróz, Radosław Poleski, Andrzej Udalski +14
Modeling of complex microlensing events suffers from many difficult-to-disentangle degeneracies. This is especially the case for orbital motion of the source in a binary system, th…
KMT-2024-BLG-0816/OGLE-2024-BLG-0519 -- A Microlensing Event with Candidate Free-Floating Planet Lens and Blended Light
R. Poleski, Y. -H. Ryu, A. Udalski +27
We present the discovery of a free-floating planet microlensing event KMT-2024-BLG-0816. The event shows finite-source effect, significant blending light, and no microlensing signa…
A free-floating-planet microlensing event caused by a Saturn-mass object
Subo Dong, Zexuan Wu, Yoon-Hyun Ryu +39
A population of free-floating planets is known from gravitational microlensing surveys. None have a directly measured mass, owing to a degeneracy with the distance, but the populat…
Microlensing optical depth, event rate, and limits on compact objects in dark matter based on 20 yr of OGLE observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud
P. Mróz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymański +12
Some previous studies have suggested that massive and intermediate-mass primordial black holes (PBHs) could comprise a substantial fraction of dark matter in the Universe. Such bla…
The Ultimate I-band Calibration of the TRGB Standard Candle
A. Udalski, D. M. Skowron, J. Skowron +13
We present the ultimate I-band calibration of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) standard candle. Our calibration is based on photometry from the outer parts of the Large Magel…
Constraining Lens Masses in Moderately to Highly Magnified Microlensing Events from Gaia
U. Pylypenko, Ł. Wyrzykowski, P. J. Mikołajczyk +57
Microlensing events provide a unique way to detect and measure the masses of isolated, non-luminous objects, particularly dark stellar remnants. Under certain conditions, it is pos…
An Extremely Hot Pulsating Pre-White Dwarf from OGLE
P. Pietrukowicz, K. Werner, M. J. Mroz +1
We show that the blue 18.3-minute variable object discovered in the Galactic disk by the OGLE-III survey and named OGLE-GD-WD-0001 is a pulsating pre-white dwarf of PG 1159 spectra…
OGLE-2015-BLG-1609Lb: Sub-jovian planet orbiting a low-mass stellar or brown dwarf host
M. J. Mróz, R. Poleski, A. Udalski +70
We present a comprehensive analysis of a planetary microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-1609. The planetary anomaly was detected by two survey telescopes, OGLE and MOA. Each of these s…
The OGLE Collection of Variable Stars: Over 18 000 Rotating Variables toward the Galactic Bulge
P. Iwanek, I. Soszyński, K. Stępień +14
Stellar rotation, a key factor influencing stellar structure and evolution, also drives magnetic activity, which is manifested as spots or flares on stellar surface. Here, we prese…
A close binary lens revealed by the microlensing event Gaia20bof
E. Bachelet, P. Rota, V. Bozza +24
During the last 25 years, hundreds of binary stars and planets have been discovered towards the Galactic Bulge by microlensing surveys. Thanks to a new generation of large-sky surv…
Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry
Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412
Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…
Uncovering the Invisible: A Study of Gaia18ajz, a Candidate Black Hole Revealed by Microlensing
K. Howil, Ł. Wyrzykowski, K. Kruszyńska +30
Identifying black holes is essential for comprehending the development of stars and uncovering novel principles of physics. Gravitational microlensing provides an exceptional oppor…
Microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud based on 20 years of OGLE observations
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +14
Measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) can be used to probe the distribution and mass function of compact objects in…
No massive black holes in the Milky Way halo
P. Mroz, A. Udalski, M. K. Szymanski +13
The gravitational wave detectors have unveiled a population of massive black holes that do not resemble those observed in the Milky Way and whose origin is debated. According to on…
Candidates for Transiting Planets in OGLE-IV Galactic Bulge Fields
M. J. Mróz, P. Pietrukowicz, R. Poleski +13
We present results of a search for transiting exoplanets in 10-yr long photometry with thousands of epochs taken in the direction of the Galactic bulge. This photometry was collect…
Gaia Focused Product Release: Sources from Service Interface Function image analysis -- Half a million new sources in omega Centauri
Gaia Collaboration, K. Weingrill, A. Mints +400
