An Updated SynthPop Model for Microlensing Simulations I: Model Description & Evaluation
Macy J. Huston, Alison L. Crisp, Marz Newman +21
The optimization and interpretation of microlensing surveys depends on having an accurate model of the Milky Way. However, existing population synthesis Galactic modeling tools oft…
A Minute-Cadence Deep Bulge Survey: First Data Release of DREAMS
Hongjing Yang, Weicheng Zang, Francisco Valdes +33
The DECam Rogue Earths and Mars Survey (DREAMS), a NOIRLab survey program, has been conducting a three-year survey covering a 5 deg area in the Galactic bulge (roughly spanning…
An HST Wide Field Survey of the Galactic Bulge: Overview, Strategy, and First Results
Sean K. Terry, Jay Anderson, Charles A. Beichman +13
We present an HST imaging survey of a 1.1 sq. degree sky area toward the Milky Way Galactic Bulge. This field significantly overlaps with the upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Bu…
Technique-agnostic exoplanet demography for the Roman era -- I. Testing a demography retrieval framework using simulated Kepler-like transit datasets
Akshay Priyadarshi, Eamonn Kerins, Michael D. Albrow +41
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will unveil for the first time the full architecture of planetary systems across Galactic distances through the discovery of up to 200…
KMT-2025-BLG-1616Lb: First Microlensing Bound Planet From DREAMS
Hongjing Yang, Weicheng Zang, Yoon-Hyun Ryu +60
We present observations and analysis of the bound planetary microlensing event KMT-2025-BLG-1616. The planetary signal was captured by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMT…
Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. V. Detection Rates of Multiplanetary Systems in High Magnification Microlensing Events
Vito Saggese, Ãtienne Bachelet, Sebastiano Calchi Novati +34
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will expand the reach of gravitational microlensing surveys by increasing the number of events monitored and the precision of their light curv…
