Planet Sensitivity from Combined Ground- and Space-based Microlensing Observations

Wei Zhu, Andrew Gould, Charles Beichman +45

To move one step forward toward a Galactic distribution of planets, we present the first planet sensitivity analysis for microlensing events with simultaneous observations from spa…

OGLE-2012-BLG-0563Lb: a Saturn-mass Planet around an M Dwarf with the Mass Constrained by Subaru AO imaging

A. Fukui, A. Gould, T. Sumi +58

We report the discovery of a microlensing exoplanet OGLE-2012-BLG-0563Lb with the planet-star mass ratio ~1 x 10^{-3}. Intensive photometric observations of a high-magnification mi…

OGLE-2011-BLG-0265Lb: a Jovian Microlensing Planet Orbiting an M Dwarf

J. Skowron, I. -G. Shin, A. Udalski +121

We report the discovery of a Jupiter-mass planet orbiting an M-dwarf star that gave rise to the microlensing event OGLE-2011-BLG-0265. Such a system is very rare among known planet…

OGLE-2008-BLG-355Lb: A Massive Planet around A Late type Star

N. Koshimoto, A. Udalski, T. Sumi +32

We report the discovery of a massive planet OGLE-2008-BLG-355Lb. The light curve analysis indicates a planet:host mass ratio of q = 0.0118 +/- 0.0006 at a separation of 0.877 +/- 0…

A Sub-Earth-Mass Moon Orbiting a Gas Giant Primary or a High Velocity Planetary System in the Galactic Bulge

D. P. Bennett, V. Batista, I. A. Bond +90

We present the first microlensing candidate for a free-floating exoplanet-exomoon system, MOA-2011-BLG-262, with a primary lens mass of M_host ~ 4 Jupiter masses hosting a sub-Eart…

MOA-2010-BLG-328Lb: a sub-Neptune orbiting very late M dwarf ?

K. Furusawa, A. Udalski, T. Sumi +119

We analyze the planetary microlensing event MOA-2010-BLG-328. The best fit yields host and planetary masses of Mh = 0.11+/-0.01 M_{sun} and Mp = 9.2+/-2.2M_Earth, corresponding to…

A Super-Jupiter orbiting a late-type star: A refined analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2012-BLG-0406

Y. Tsapras, J. -Y. Choi, R. A. Street +122

We present a detailed analysis of survey and follow-up observations of microlensing event OGLE-2012-BLG-0406 based on data obtained from 10 different observatories. Intensive cover…

Microlensing Discovery of a Tight, Low Mass-ratio Planetary-mass Object around an Old, Field Brown Dwarf

C. Han, Y. K. Jung, A. Udalski +67

Observations of accretion disks around young brown dwarfs have led to the speculation that they may form planetary systems similar to normal stars. While there have been several de…

One or more bound planets per Milky Way star from microlensing observations

A. Cassan, D. Kubas, J. -P. Beaulieu +39

Most known extrasolar planets (exoplanets) have been discovered using the radial velocity or transit methods. Both are biased towards planets that are relativ…

Unbound or Distant Planetary Mass Population Detected by Gravitational Microlensing

T. Sumi, K. Kamiya, A. Udalski +36

Since 1995, more than 500 exoplanets have been detected using different techniques, of which 11 were detected with gravitational microlensing. Most of these are gravitationally bou…

Extreme Magnification Microlensing Event OGLE-2008-BLG-279: Strong Limits on Planetary Companions to the Lens Star

J. C. Yee, A. Udalski, T. Sumi +14

We analyze the extreme high-magnification microlensing event OGLE-2008-BLG-279, which peaked at a maximum magnification of A ~ 1600 on 30 May 2008. The peak of this event exhibits…
