MOA-2010-BLG-073L: An M-Dwarf with a Substellar Companion at the Planet/Brown Dwarf Boundary
R. A. Street, J. -Y. Choi, Y. Tsapras +129
We present an analysis of the anomalous microlensing event, MOA-2010-BLG-073, announced by the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics survey on 2010-03-18. This event was remark…
Transits and starspots in the WASP-19 planetary system
Jeremy Tregloan-Reed, John Southworth, C. Tappert
We have developed a new model for analysing light curves of planetary transits when there are starspots on the stellar disc. Because the parameter space contains a profusion of loc…
MOA-2010-BLG-523: "Failed Planet" = RS CVn Star
A. Gould, J. C. Yee, I. A. Bond +116
The Galactic bulge source MOA-2010-BLG-523S exhibited short-term deviations from a standard microlensing lightcurve near the peak of an Amax ~ 265 high-magnification microlensing e…
MOA-2010-BLG-311: A planetary candidate below the threshold of reliable detection
J. C. Yee, L. -W. Hung, I. A. Bond +123
We analyze MOA-2010-BLG-311, a high magnification (A_max>600) microlensing event with complete data coverage over the peak, making it very sensitive to planetary signals. We fit th…
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…
High-precision photometry by telescope defocussing. IV. Confirmation of the huge radius of WASP-17b
John Southworth, M Dominik, X-S Fang +29
We present photometric observations of four transits in the WASP-17 planetary system, obtained using telescope defocussing techniques and with scatters reaching 0.5 mmag per point.…
