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…

Sub-Saturn Planet MOA-2008-BLG-310Lb: Likely To Be In The Galactic Bulge

Julia Janczak, A. Fukui, Subo Dong +13

We report the detection of sub-Saturn-mass planet MOA-2008-BLG-310Lb and argue that it is the strongest candidate yet for a bulge planet. Deviations from the single-lens fit are sm…

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…

The optical counterpart of XTE J0929-314, the third transient millisecond X-ray pulsar

A. B. Giles, J. G. Greenhill, K. M. Hill +1

A blue and variable optical counterpart of the X-ray transient XTE J0929-314 was identified on 2002 May 1. We conducted frequent BVRI broadband photometry on this object using the…

The PLANET microlensing campaign: Implications for planets around galactic disk and bulge stars

M. Dominik, M. D. Albrow, J. -P. Beaulieu +17

With round-the-clock monitoring of galactic bulge microlensing events, the PLANET experiment constrains the abundance and can yield the discovery of planets down to the mass of ear…
