Results from Microlensing Searches for Extrasolar Planets
Penny D. Sackett
Specially-designed microlensing searches, some of which have been underway for several years, are sensitive to extrasolar planets orbiting the most common stars in our Galaxy. Micr…
Microlensing Constraints on the Frequency of Jupiter Mass Planets
B. Scott Gaudi, M. D. Albrow, Jin H. An +17
Microlensing is the only technique likely, within the next 5 years, to constrain the frequency of Jupiter-analogs. The PLANET collaboration has monitored nearly 100 microlensing ev…
Microlensing and the Physics of Stellar Atmospheres
Penny D. Sackett
The simple physics of microlensing provides a well-understood tool with which to probe the atmospheres of distant stars in the Galaxy and Local Group with high magnification and re…
The 24-Hour Night Shift: Astronomy from Microlensing Monitoring Networks
Penny D. Sackett
Scores of on-going microlensing events are now announced yearly by the microlensing discovery teams OGLE, MACHO and EROS. These early warning systems have allowed other internation…
