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…

Discovery and Mass Measurements of a Cold, 10-Earth Mass Planet and Its Host Star

Y. Muraki, C. Han, D. P. Bennett +125

We present the discovery and mass measurement of the cold, low-mass planet MOA-2009-BLG-266Lb, made with the gravitational microlensing method. This planet has a mass of m_p = 10.4…

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…

OGLE-2009-BLG-023/MOA-2009-BLG-028: Characterization of a Binary Microlensing Event Based on Survey Data

K. -H. Hwang, C. Han, A. Udalski +37

We report the result of the analysis of the light curve of a caustic-crossing binary-lens microlensing event OGLE-2009-BLG-023/MOA-2009-BLG-028. Even though the event was observed…

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,…
