Microlensig Binaries with Candidate Brown Dwarf Companions

I. -G. Shin, C. Han, A. Gould +152

Brown dwarfs are important objects because they may provide a missing link between stars and planets, two populations that have dramatically different formation history. In this pa…

Characterizing Lenses and Lensed Stars of High-Magnification Single-lens Gravitational Microlensing Events With Lenses Passing Over Source Stars

J. -Y. Choi, I. -G. Shin, S. -Y. Park +148

We present the analysis of the light curves of 9 high-magnification single-lens gravitational microlensing events with lenses passing over source stars, including OGLE-2004-BLG-254…

Microlensing Binaries Discovered through High-Magnification Channel

I. -G. Shin, J. -Y. Choi, S. -Y. Park +148

Microlensing can provide a useful tool to probe binary distributions down to low-mass limits of binary companions. In this paper, we analyze the light curves of 8 binary lensing ev…

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…

MOA-2009-BLG-387Lb: A massive planet orbiting an M dwarf

Virginie Batista, A. Gould, S. Dieters +25

We report the discovery of a planet with a high planet-to-star mass ratio in the microlensing event MOA-2009-BLG-387, which exhibited pronounced deviations over a 12-day interval,…

Measurements of Transit Timing Variations for WASP-5b

Akihiko Fukui, Norio Narita, Paul J. Tristram +34

We have observed 7 new transits of the `hot Jupiter' WASP-5b using a 61 cm telescope located in New Zealand, in order to search for transit timing variations (TTVs) which can be in…
