Faint source star planetary microlensing: the discovery of the cold gas giant planet OGLE-2014-BLG-0676Lb
N. J. Rattenbury, D. P. Bennett, T. Sumi +85
We report the discovery of a planet --- OGLE-2014-BLG-0676Lb --- via gravitational microlensing. Observations for the lensing event were made by the MOA, OGLE, Wise, RoboNET/LCOGT,…
MiNDSTEp differential photometry of the gravitationally lensed quasars WFI2033-4723 and HE0047-1756: Microlensing and a new time delay
E. Giannini, R. W. Schmidt, J. Wambsganß +52
We present V and R photometry of the gravitationally lensed quasars WFI2033-4723 and HE0047-1756. The data were taken by the MiNDSTEp collaboration with the 1.54 m Danish telescope…
Orbital alignment and starspot properties in the WASP-52 planetary system
L. Mancini, J. Southworth, G. Raia +27
We report 13 high-precision light curves of eight transits of the exoplanet WASP-52b, obtained by using four medium-class telescopes, through different filters, and adopting the de…
VIS: the visible imager for Euclid
Mark Cropper, S. Pottinger, S. Niemi +33
Euclid-VIS is the large format visible imager for the ESA Euclid space mission in their Cosmic Vision program, scheduled for launch in 2020. Together with the near infrared imaging…
GravityCam: Higher Resolution Visible Wide-Field Imaging
Craig Mackay, Martin Dominik, Iain Steele
The limits to the angular resolution achievable with conventional ground-based telescopes are unchanged over 70 years. Atmospheric turbulence limits image quality to typically ~1 a…
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…
First simultaneous microlensing observations by two space telescopes: & reveal a brown dwarf in event OGLE-2015-BLG-1319
Y. Shvartzvald, Z. Li, A. Udalski +90
Simultaneous observations of microlensing events from multiple locations allow for the breaking of degeneracies between the physical properties of the lensing system, specifically…
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…
High-resolution Imaging of Transiting Extrasolar Planetary systems (HITEP). I. Lucky imaging observations of 101 systems in the southern hemisphere
D. F. Evans, J. Southworth, P. F. L. Maxted +33
(abridged) Context. Wide binaries are a potential pathway for the formation of hot Jupiters. The binary fraction among host stars is an important discriminator between competing fo…
Spitzer Observations of OGLE-2015-BLG-1212 Reveal a New Path to Breaking Strong Microlens Degeneracies
V. Bozza, Y. Shvartzvald, A. Udalski +98
Spitzer microlensing parallax observations of OGLE-2015-BLG-1212 decisively breaks a degeneracy between planetary and binary solutions that is somewhat ambiguous when only ground-b…
