An Isolated Stellar-Mass Black Hole Detected Through Astrometric Microlensing
Kailash C. Sahu, Jay Anderson, Stefano Casertano +90
We report the first unambiguous detection and mass measurement of an isolated stellar-mass black hole (BH). We used the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to carry out precise astrometry…
Qatar Exoplanet Survey: Qatar-6b -- a grazing transiting hot Jupiter
Khalid Alsubai, Zlatan I. Tsvetanov, David W. Latham +14
We report the discovery of Qatar-6b, a new transiting planet identified by the Qatar Exoplanet Survey (QES). The planet orbits a relatively bright (V=11.44), early-K main-sequence…
OGLE-2015-BLG-0479LA,B: Binary Gravitational Microlens Characterized by Simultaneous Ground-based and Space-based Observation
C. Han, A. Udalski, A. Gould +60
We present a combined analysis of the observations of the gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2015-BLG-0479 taken both from the ground and by the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope}. T…
Many new variable stars discovered in the core of the globular cluster NGC 6715 (M54) with EMCCD observations
R. Figuera Jaimes, D. M. Bramich, N. Kains +38
We show the benefits of using Electron-Multiplying CCDs and the shift-and-add technique as a tool to minimise the effects of the atmospheric turbulence such as blending between sta…
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…
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…
