Mass Production of 2023 KMTNet Microlensing Planets. III: Three Planets from the Subprime Field

Hongyu Li, Zhixing Li, Weicheng Zang +56

To complete the analysis of the 2023 KMTNet subprime-field microlensing planetary events identified by its AlertFinder system, we present the analysis of six events, KMT-2023-BLG-(…

KMT-2025-BLG-1314 and KMT-2025-BLG-1392: two microlensing planetary/brown-dwarf candidates analyzed with differentiable code

Haibin Ren, Weicheng Zang, Wei Zhu +20

Analysis of binary-lens microlensing events typically requires intensive computation because of the multimodal and complex posterior distributions. With the recent development of t…

A Newly Identified Degeneracy Keeps the Planetary Interpretation Viable for OGLE-2011-BLG-0950

Jiyuan Zhang, Weicheng Zang, Andrzej Udalski +12

The microlensing event OGLE-2011-BLG-0950 exhibits the well-known ``Planet/Binary'' degeneracy, in which distinct lens configurations produce similar light curves but imply substan…

Four Giant Planets from 2024 KMTNet Microlensing Campaign

Cheongho Han, Andrzej Udalski, Ian A. Bond +56

In this work, we present analyses of four newly discovered planetary microlensing events from the 2024 KMTNet survey season: KMT-2024-BLG-0176, KMT-2024-BLG-0349, KMT-2024-BLG-1870…
